Subject: [PATCH 3 of 3] xen: add new Xen elfnote types and use them appropriately
Date: Sat, 31 May 2008 01:33:04 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <6c421e599ba136b73fd9.1212193984@localhost> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <patchbomb.1212193981@localhost>
Define recently added XEN_ELFNOTEs, and use them appropriately.
Most significantly, this enables domain checkpointing (xm save -c).
