Subject: [RFC PATCH 04/33] Add XEN config options and disable unsupported config options.
Date: Tue, 18 Jul 2006 00:00:04 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060718091949.565211000@sous-sol.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20060718091807.467468000@sous-sol.org
[-- Attachment #1: config-xen --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 5753 bytes --]
The XEN config option is selected from the i386 subarch menu by
choosing the X86_XEN "Xen-compatible" subarch.
The XEN_SHADOW_MODE option defines the memory virtualization mode for
the kernel -- with it enabled, the kernel expects the hypervisor to
perform translation between pseudo-physical and machine addresses on
its behalf.
The disabled config options are:
- DOUBLEFAULT: are trapped by Xen and not virtualized
- HZ: defaults to 100 in Xen VMs
- Power management: not supported in unprivileged VMs
- SMP: not supported in this set of patches
- X86_{UP,LOCAL,IO}_APIC: not supported in unprivileged VMs
