Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] [PATCH 1/4] xen interface for HVM S3
User-agent: Microsoft-Entourage/11.4.0.080122
Patches 2 and 3 look okay. Patch 4 is not really useful as it is, as you
pointed out. And that then raises the question of what *is* the usage
scenario for this feature? This also raises questions about patch 1 -- as it
is I think it will need some cleaning up, but if we only wanted to do S3
across guest save/restore then we may not need Xen changes at all. We simply
would not save/restore HVM sate but instead have tools manufacture a correct
initial HVM state to load during restore. Corresponding to a clean
initialised system with BP about to enter the BIOS.
