Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v6.1 00/11] xen: xen-domid-restrict improvements

[Ian Jackson <ian.jackson@eu.citrix.com>]

This just-amended series provides necessary support for running qemu
as a Xen device model without power equivalent to root.  In
particular, it makes -xen-domid-restrict effective.

Compared to v6, it fixes some minor checkpatch, style and portability
issues.  Sorry for the earlier troubled submission.

Compared to v5, I have taken into account all the comments from v5
(from October!) and there are also two new patches from Ross
Lagerwall.

 +.    [PATCH 01/12] checkpatch: Add xendevicemodel_handle to the list of     
 m   a [PATCH 02/12] xen: link against xentoolcore                            
     a [PATCH 03/12] xen: restrict: use xentoolcore_restrict_all              
    r  [PATCH 04/12] xen: defer call to xen_restrict until just before        
     a [PATCH 05/12] xen: destroy_hvm_domain: Move reason into a variable     
    ra [PATCH 06/12] xen: move xc_interface compatibility fallback further    
 *. r  [PATCH 07/12] xen: destroy_hvm_domain: Try xendevicemodel_shutdown

 +.    [PATCH 10/12] xen: Use newly added dmops for mapping VGA memory        
 +     [PATCH 11/12] xen: Expect xenstore write to fail when restricted       
 +     [PATCH 12/12] scripts/get_maintainer.pl: Print proper error message
