        Hi community,

        I've been working on modifying Xen and the Xen-Linux kernel to make
vCPU better represent Hyper-Threading physical CPUs, as I mentioned in a
previous post.

http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2006-01/msg00853.html

        I produced some performance measurements and patches that might be
useful for some Hyper-Threading friendly workloads running on Xen. I'll
make the performance measurement report available soon. 

        Basically, the modified files were:

        xen/common/domain.c
        xen/common/sched_bvt.c
        xen/common/sched_sedf.c
        xen/common/schedule.c
        xen/include/public/vcpu.h
        xen/include/xen/sched.h
        xen/arch/x86/smpboot.c

        How should I proceed to send the patch?

        Thanks,
        ./Eli
