There was a fairly nasty bug which ended up corrupting dom0 memory when doing IO on behalf of domains, but that is finally fixed. In honour of this, I've renamed the rebase/* branches to xen/* (moving the old remaining xen/* branches to xen-old/*); xen/master is now the preferred branch for fetching current dom0 work. The kernel tree is fairly featureful: * basic dom0 support * blkback * netback * ACPI power management * S3 suspend/resume (at least for some people) * microcode update * MSI support In other words, it has as much as it ever has. There are a few notable missing features: * blktap2 * netchannel2 * pci front/back * upstream Linux support * your pet feature Full coordinates are: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git xen/master See http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenParavirtOps for general directions on configuration, compilation and use. This is definitely a work-in-progress kernel. I'd appreciate all bug *and* success reports so I can get some idea of how many people are using this thing, and how often there are problems. Patches gratefully accepted. Thanks, J
