Hi, Wing
CC: Keir and Ewan
Attachment is a patch implementing NVRAM for IA64. The patch is
to add patch through libxc to remove the file access dependency from
Qemu. The patch doesn't touch much of the
common code, just add a hook in Xend and a HVM param in XEN. Hope your
comments on it. Nvram is important to IA64, we got many requirements for
it.Thx:-)
Wing, this patch is great improvement.
Without this patch, we cannot boot windows 2008,
and also cannot boot windows 2003 automatically on ia64.
I have a few commens.
PERROR doesn't print messages because libxc doesn't have terminal.
So it is better to pass Error codes (e.g. ENOMNT, EPERM..) to xend so
xend can catch exceptions and, as a result, it puts error messages in
xend.log.
How do you like this?
Keir and Ewan, do you have any other comments?
Best Regards,
