Date: Fri, 24 Feb 2012 01:43:52 -0500 Message-ID: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Sender: xen-devel-bounces@lists.xen.org Errors-To: xen-devel-bounces@lists.xen.org To: xen-devel@lists.xensource.com, Ian.Jackson@eu.citrix.com, stefano.stabellini@eu.citrix.com, Ian.Campbell@citrix.com Cc: konrad.wilk@oracle.com List-Id: xen-devel@lists.xenproject.org These two patches provide the neccessary infrastructure changes for the processor-passthru driver [www.spinics.net/lists/linux-acpi/msg34655.html] to properly function. The first one is quite easy - we just modprobe the processor-passthru driver. The second allows it to work under AMD machines by exposing the PM RDMSR to dom0. It has been tested with 2.6.32 kernel as well to make sure it does not negativly impact them and it does not.
