From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk Subject: [GIT PULL] (xen) stable/for-linus-3.7-rc0-tag for v3.7-rc0 Date: Fri, 12 Oct 2012 09:08:01 -0400 Message-ID: <20121012130800.GD32494@phenom.dumpdata.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary="C7zPtVaVf+AK4Oqc" Return-path: Content-Disposition: inline Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org To: Linus Torvalds , linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, xen-devel@lists.xensource.com List-Id: xen-devel@lists.xenproject.org --C7zPtVaVf+AK4Oqc Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Hey Linus, Please git pull the following tag: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/for-linus-3.7-rc0-tag which has four bug-fixes and one tiny feature that I forgot to put initially in my tree due to oversight. The feature is for kdump kernels to speed up the /proc/vmcore reading. There is a ram_is_pfn helper function that the different platforms can register for. We are now doing that. The bug-fixes cover some embarrassing struct pv_cpu_ops variables being set to NULL on Xen (but not baremetal). We had a similar issue in the past with {write|read}_msr_safe and this fills the three missing ones. The other bug-fix is to make the console output (hvc) be capable of dealing with misbehaving backends and not fall flat on its face. Lastly, a quirk for older XenBus implementations that came with an ancient v3.4 hypervisor (so RHEL5 based) - reading of certain non-existent attributes just hangs the guest during bootup - so we take precaution of not doing that on such older installations. That is it.
