Subject: [PATCH] xen: make sysfs files behave as their names suggest
Date: Wed, 28 Jan 2009 16:50:20 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4980FD4C.3030700@goop.org> (raw)
1: make "target_kb" only accept and produce a memory size in kilobytes.
2: add a second "target" file which produces output in bytes, and will accept
memparse input (scaled bytes)
This fixes the rather irritating problem that writing the same value
read back into target_kb would end up shrinking the domain by a factor
of 1024, with generally bad results.
