I know there were previous problems when a UP Windows guest was trying to be installed/booted with an MP table. If there are no objections, please apply to unstable. The first patch looks fine to me, although I'll wait a day or two and see if anyone else has any comments before applying. The second patch is more doubtful -- can it ever hurt to create the MP tables? If any really old OSes get confused by them then you could boot them with apic=0. I'd like to avoid adding yet another low-level hacky config option unless it is genuinely useful. -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel |
