Hi All,

We've ported PV-on-HVM drivers for IPF.
I post a part of PV-on-HVM backport patch for IPF.
We tested compiling and simple test on RHEL4U2.

BTW, We try to port it for RHEL4U4.
We appended typedef gfp_t, because it is not defined in linux2.6.16.
But it has already been defined in RHEL4U4.
We made pv-RHEL4U4-ia64.patch compiling for RHEL4U4.
However, we don't think that this idea is so good.
Do you have any idea for cleanup to switch of version?
And I found insmod to RHEL4U4 is always fail.
I still investigating it.

pv-backport-ia64.patch:
 - Add infrastructure for a compatibility shim on IPF
 - Append IS_ERR_VALUE to hypercall.h for backport
 - Append to include pgtable-nopud.h for linux-2.6.11 before
 - Append pud_bad macro for linux-2.6.11 before

pv-RHEL4U4-ia64.patch(preliminary):
 - Modify build rule for RHEL4_U4 specific
 - Append typedef gfp_t to xencomm.h for linux-2.6.14 before
 - we tested only compiling.

My best regards.

-
Takanori Kasai
