A little while ago, Jeremy Fitzhardinge has a problem that was preventing request-abs-pointer from being honoured. A simple fix for this in 805ed3b20492d2f4bb465bfda65cedd286e23209 actually turned out to be wrong. Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk and Stefano Stabellini suggested a different approach: introduce a new hook in xen_backend that, if defined, is called when the frontend is connected. The first of these two patches does just that (the old connect hook is now called "initialise" and the new hook is called "connected"). The second patch uses this to set up the pointer at the right time. I haven't been able to test this in a Xen 4.0 environment, but it works properly in a Xen 3.4 environment. jch _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel |
