[Xen-devel] [PATCH OSSTEST v2 00/19] Initial support for ARM64



The following makes a start on support for arm64 systems.

Since arm64 was only added in Debian Jessie this requires Wei's "Debian
Jessie patches" as a base line, I'm using v3 of those (note that these
have picked up some of the patches which I previously included in this
series, since they belong there more).

The main development here is support for UEFI PXE booting, which is not
particular to arm64, but is more prominent there. Hopefully this work
would be useful for UEFI only x86 systems too.

Since last time the Debian kernel has been updated and now reboots, so
build-* works. I've also added support for test-*. This mainly involved
plumbing in UEFI chainloading into the grub handling, which is was bit
fiddly but worked out ok in the end, I think.

test-arm64-arm64-xl works ok.

test-arm64-arm64-libvirt needs a hack to work on Jessie (differingly
library name) for which I don't yet have a clean solution. And then
libvirtd SEGVs, like it seems to on armhf at the moment too.

Ian.
