Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] Porting Mini-OS to ia64
Dear Dietmar
Yes, I'm Mini-OS maintainer. It's great that somebody wants to port
it to IA64.
With respect to your patch. I would prefer to see the following
directory structure:
mini-os/include/x86
mini-os/include/x86/x86_32
mini-os/include/x86/x86_64
If we find that there is only one file in x86_32/x86_64 it would be
better to scrap the two directories and put the files in x86.
Continuing, architecture dependent .c files should end up in:
mini-os/arch/x86
mini-os/arch/x86/x86_32
mini-os/arch/x86/x86_64
The above is consistant with the directory structure in xen itself.
I have also noticed that you left some debug statements in your
version of Makefile. Obviously we will not commit these to the public
repository. So if you remove them before dumping the diff it would
make my life little easier.
Finally, when you moved the files around, have you used: hg mv, or
just mv. The first one is better :).
Cheers
Gregor

Hi,
last week I send a mail asking for some small re-architectures of
mini-os for
porting to ia64. Unfortunately I didn't get an answer so I try it
again with a
first draft. I tried the changes as small as possible. Currently I
did only
adding some new directories and moving some files.
I created:
mini-os/include/x86
It's for common header files for x86_32 and x86_64, currently
os.h and
spinlock.h .
mini-os/include/x86_32
It's for special x86_32 header files, currently hypercall-
x86_32.h.
mini-os/include/x86_64
It's for special x86_64 header files, currently hypercall-
x86_64.h.
mini-os/x86
For common code files for x86_32 and x86_64, currently traps.c
I changed mini-os/Makefile to support the new structure.
Please can anybody look at this and give some feedback.
Thanks.
Dietmar.
