Subject: [RFC PATCH V2] Implement 3-level event channel support in Xen
Date: Mon, 21 Jan 2013 14:30:40 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1358778654-29559-1-git-send-email-wei.liu2@citrix.com> (raw)

This is version 2 of the patch series. I've broken down the series to small
patches. I also added more comments in the commit log.

Apart from normal fixes and cleanups, the differences between V1 and V2 are:
* Use function pointers to get rid of switch statments
* Do not manipulate VCPU state
* No more gcc-ism code in public headers
* Consolidate some boilerplates using macros

The compat shim is not implemented at the moment. Will do this when we reach
consensus on the interface.

Under what curcumstance should we enable 3-level event channel is still open
for discussion.


Thanks
Wei.
