Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 0/6] Allow setting up shared memory areas between VMs from xl config files

[Zhongze Liu <blackskygg@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Stefano,

Sorry for the long delay. I've been busy with other school stuff recently so
I can only use my spare time on this. The current situation is: the
code has already been completed, but I'm still drafting the man pages
and there are approximately 20% left. I'll try my best to update it within
the following one week or so.

Sorry again for failing to schedule my time effectively.

Cheers,

Zhongze Liu.
