All,

with this due in about three weeks, please indicate backports you find
missing from its staging tree but you deem necessary in the release.
I already have commit 556c69f4ef ("x86/PoD: skip eager reclaim when
possible") queued, and I'm undecided about af07377007 ("IOMMU/x86:
per-domain control structure is not HVM-specific") as well as the
SMEP/SMAP fix (which first needs at least one more adjustment on
master anyway).

Thanks, Jan

Should we backport something like
013396f93ee2d4ec416f701ae420c683b7327230 to help users avoid the
deadlock present when using a domU with a Linux kernel 3.14 or newer?

If yes then you might want the init script fixes to make the daemons use
that as well which were 1367e9e5ba4d1612e303123ec0bbf961100fcfa1 and
9ec68500009322fc148742d9aa85596e03c3c2be.

A no is ok.

Both tools side changes, so I'll defer to Ian.

I would like to propose backporting some mini-os patches to mini-os.git
stable-4.6 branch and update Config.mk in 4.6.

I guess I will bring that up with Samuel and then post patch here?

Wei.

On top of the recently backported ones?
