Hello again,
Now that pv_ops dom0 is getting close to being 'ready' for 2.6.32,
it would be nice to have xenlinux patches for 2.6.32 aswell.. :)
I'm planning to compare and benchmark against each other..
I can give the novell patches a go myself, but always easier if someone
who already knows the stuff does it..
I'm probably going to do some tests/benchmarks next week if all goes well.
