[Xen-devel] [PATCH 0/2] dump-core take 3

[Isaku Yamahata <yamahata@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The following patchset is the dump-core take 3.
It changes its format into ELF, adds PFN-GMFN table, HVM support,
and adds IA64 preliminary chages.

The take 2 patch was objected because it added new hypercall.
Now I removed it, so I hope that the take 3 becomes acceptable
than take 2.
The page dumping logic is slight complicated because the file
is treated as append only. If seeking back and forth is allowed,
it can be simplified a bit.

Changes from take 2:
- removed memory map related hypercall chages.
- removed xc_domain_tranlate_gpfn(). 
  instead, trying to map pages is used.
- hvm builder, resotre: set shared_info.arch.max_pfn.
- dropped experimental IA64 support.

[TODO]
- IA64 support
  extend arch_shared_info for dump-core to know the dump area.
  update ia64 domain builder to set it up appropreately.
