[PATCH v10 00/11] Series short description

[Dario Faggioli <dario.faggioli@citrix.com>]

Hello,

v10 of the soft affinity (toolstack side) series.

I restructured the series as Ian suggested: patch "libxl/xl: deprecate the
build_info->cpumap field" was created to only host the deprecation of cpumap.
The xl changes that this requires (and the improvement that it allows) live in
their own patch ("xl: move away from the (deprecated) use of cpumap for hard
affinity").

I also added "Change the libxl default for b_info->{cpu,node}map to "not
allocated"". It is the right thing to do, and it affects some of the patches in
this series, and that's why I'm including it here, instead than submitting it
as a separate patch.

So, the patches that need attention (and Ack-s! :-P) are:

 10/11 libxl: libxl/xl: make it possible to specify soft-affinity in domain config file
 09/11 xl: move the vcpu affinity parsing in a function
 08/11 xl: move away from the (deprecated) use of cpumap for hard affinity
 07/11 libxl/xl: deprecate the build_info->cpumap field
 06/11 libxl/xl: push VCPU affinity pinning down to libxl
 05/11 libxl: Change default for b_info->{cpu,node}map to "not allocated"

while the other ones have all they need to go in.

Regards,
Dario
