commit a892f81ddecf0ad90564a4d91d520234c542b068 Author: Wei Liu <wei.liu2@xxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Tue Mar 19 13:57:06 2019 +0000 Commit: Wei Liu <wei.liu2@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Tue Mar 19 14:39:42 2019 +0000 x86: decouple xen alignment setting from EFI/ELF build Introduce a new Kconfig option to pick the alignment for xen binary. To retain original behaviour, the default pick for EFI build is 2M and ELF build 4K. Make the PVHSHIM build use 2M alignment for potentially better performance.
