I could imagine that there will be other parties trying to compile Xen 4.2 on a
glibc >= 2.17 environment. So maybe this is worth being cherry-picked into the
stable-4.2 branch?

Cheers,
Stefan

Keir isn't looking after the stable trees anymore, I am now.

Tools backports however get usually done by Ian Jackson (Cc-ed),
so you should direct future similar requests to him or me.

OK, will try to remember for the future.

Thanks,

On the subject of backport requests,

Can I request the backport of rev 26373:56daf05bcf69 to xen-4.2, which
fixes SBDF encoding in the ocaml bindings.

Rev 26374 is also a possibility, but as it is not strictly a fix, it is
rather less important.

Thanks,

~Andrew

Done.

I'm not sure whether it's a good idea to take this.  Personally I
would be inclined to do so, because it will make any future patches
here easier if they don't divert, but I would like to ask the Jan's
opinion as the stable maintainer.

Ian.

If the "no functional change" is true (which it looks like it is), then
I don't mind this being put in if it helps going forward.

That said, the change looks questionable in one aspect: PCI
terminology uses "device" and "slot" interchangeably, and hence
it was pointless to do that part of the renaming.
