Xen project Mailing List

Hi, Lars,

Our status and plan is below, I marked in blue.

== [PATCH v4 0/4] x86/cpuid: enable new cpu features The agreement was to park until patches arrive, which as far as I can tell have not @John, @Yang: please let me know if there is any progress and whether thus this item should be put onto the agenda

--Yang will start doing this around 16 May.

== Longer Term / Blocked

=== [PATCH RESEND v1 0/7] Intel Processor Trace virtulization enabling ACTION (April): Lars to talk Intel, George & Wei with a view of whether a design/discussion could be arranged at the summit and whether it makes sense. It will need some preparation by the reviewer though.

@John, @George, @Wei: Are there new developments?

@Luwei, your latest status says “Get some comment form Xen maintainer Jan and Wei.”, what’s your plan to send a new version.

-- Yes, Jan and Wei raised some questions last week and still under discussion. Furthermore, not all the patches have comments. So, it still need some time to reach an agreement, prepare patches and send new version.

== Longer Term / Agreed to pause

=== [PATCH v4 00/28] add vIOMMU support with irq remapping function of virtual VT-d

@John: let me know whether this is still paused. If so, I propose not to discuss

-- Roger already gave some comments on the version 4. Chao will follow up on a new version.

Best Regards

John Ji
