As far as i understand it's Novell's patched tree. Suse performed Xen forward porting to 2.6.27. Canonical gave up on this task and picked up KVM, obviously unable to compete with Xen Hypervisor on Server's platform. If i am wrong about that , please advise.

Hmmm... I had thought that the linux-2.6.27-xen.hg tree was essentially an hg equivalent of upstream
kernel.org 2.6.27, but it appears there are more differences (and not just bug fixes).
Can someone explain the difference and the purpose of the linux-2.6.27-xen.hg tree (if other than to have a private non-kernel.org copy for xen-related development that hasn't yet made it upstream)? Why, for example, are the hypercall source files in a different place?
