Subject: Paravirt-ops next steps
Date: Thu, 09 Nov 2006 19:27:30 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4553F1A2.2050802@vmware.com> (raw)

So it's gotten a bit confusing to figure out how we should go about 
upstreaming the rest of our patches.  Our patchkit in the paravirt-ops 
tree currently applies to 2.6.19-rc4-mm2, but there are a number of 
conflicts that got resolved when merging into Andi's i386 tree.

What is the best way to sanitize the remaining patches so they smoothly 
integrate into the appropriate trees?  Should we rebase to Andi's tree, 
resync to -rc5-mm1, or just cross our fingers and fix up rejects as they 
occur?

Right now I'm working on getting the timer code for VMI fixed up, and it 
requires several hooks in the timer infrastructure and possibly the APIC 
infrastructure that has been changed a lot recently by Thomas Gleixner's 
patches - I don't see any obvious conflicts, and the new code looks 
better, but it would be comforting to know I am baking changes against 
the right tree.

Zach
