In the pdf
   http://www.socc2013.org/home/program/a3-dong.pdf?attredirects=0
linked from the wiki page
   http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/COLO_-_Coarse_Grain_Lock_Stepping
it says that the secondary keeps a copy of the original contents of
its dirty pages.  So I don't understand why you need to send the dirty
bitmap to the primary.

Thanks,
Ian.
