Subject: [PATCH] Add grant references for fbfront/kbdfront
Date: Tue, 15 Mar 2011 10:11:11 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1300198274-1325-1-git-send-email-konrad.wilk@oracle.com> (raw)
This patchset is proposed for 2.6.39.
The patchset description from:
http://lists.colo.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2011-03/msg00381.html
This series fixes the interface for the fbfront and kbdfront devices,
which were storing MFNs in xenstore rather than creating grant table
entries. To maintain backwards compatibility, a different xenstore key
is used (page-gref instead of page-ref) and the use of grants must be
requested for fbfront (because two levels of page references are
embedded within the shared page). This makes it possible to move a
display server out of dom0 without giving the display domain full access
to other domain's memory.
Changes since v1:
Updated xenstore key to "feature-grants"
Updated frontend patch has been sent to qemu-devel.
