Hi,
 I have a doubt regarding the way start_info fields are used by domU.
I see that in start_info_x86_32(), most fields of start_info are getting
initialized. I know that these info are used during the boot of guest
OS, but iam not able to figure out as to how exactly this is achieved in
the implementation?

Another doubt i have is that the domain_builder executes vm_launch as
its last step which makes setvcpucontext hypercall. After this when will
it get loaded by the scheduler??

 Correct me if my understanding is wrong.

Thanks,
  Sandesh
