Re: [Xen-devel] Patch question (Hyper-Threading support)
Hi all,
Well, based on some quick inspections on the that I checked out from
the mercurial repository this afternoon, it seems that the HT support
has been already implemented. :-)
Thus, here is a suggestion, it would be nice to make more details
available about who is doing what and in which phase of development
things are, this information could avoid duplicated efforts.
Thanks,
Eli
