Hi all, I'm reading Mini-OS's codes and to estimate the amount of work porting it to ARM (Ian's GSoC idea this year). While Xen is booting Mini-OS on x86 platform, it passes the start_info_t to the guest through ESI register. And Mini-OS would use this structure as the argument of start_kernel. However, I didn't see codes handle the start_info_t on ARM side. Instead, I see a more standard protocal when booting ARM's dom0, which follows linux kernel bootstrap rules: r0 = 0, r1 = machine nr, r2 = atags or dtb pointer Does it mean that Xen for ARM does not use the start_info_t to pass information when booting PV guest? Or did I miss something important? Any comments?
