* xen: Place vcpu_info structure into per-cpu memoryJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-07-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | An experimental patch for Xen allows guests to place their vcpu_info structs anywhere. We try to use this to place the vcpu_info into the PDA, which allows direct access. If this works, then switch to using direct access operations for irq_enable, disable, save_fl and restore_fl.

* xen: Add grant table supportJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-07-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add Xen 'grant table' driver which allows granting of access to selected local memory pages by other virtual machines and, symmetrically, the mapping of remote memory pages which other virtual machines have granted access to. This driver is a prerequisite for many of the Xen virtual device drivers, which grant the 'device driver domain' restricted and temporary access to only those memory pages that are currently involved in I/O operations.

* xen: Add Xen interface header filesJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-07-18
Add Xen interface header files. These are taken fairly directly from the Xen tree, but somewhat rearranged to suit the kernel's conventions. Define macros and inline functions for doing hypercalls into the hypervisor.
