Keep an eye on xen-unstable and make sure the patch, or equivalent, goes in in the next week or two. Once it’s in you can request it be backported.

Keir and Steven,

Thank you for your work. The proposed patch solved the bug!

After 4.2.0 is officially released this week, I very much hope that this patch is backported to the 4.2.0 tree. Several distributions like Debian are already building upon 4.2.0 and will not wait for 4.2.1, and without the patch being backported, researchers like me will not be able to use the supported Xen from package repository.  We can compile from source, but if we have a supported version it is better for everyone. (And it is such a simple patch! )

Is this something I can request in formal manner?

Now that this patch is in xen-unstable.hg, I would like to request that it be backported to 4.2.0 as we discussed.

Thank you!

Navin
