The set of patches below add support for loading plan9's a.out
format using the linux builder. This is considerably simpler
than having a seperate builder, shares more code and should
be easier to maintain. Hopefully the original plan9 builder
can go away in the future.
I've been able to test this manually with vm-tools but am
still having some problems (unrelated I think) with xm.

Rationalise x86 CRn guest state into a ctrlreg array in the per-vcpu
context structure. Most noticeably this means the pt_base field has
gone away -- replaced by ctrlreg[3] (CR3). VCPU_guest_stts is also
gone -- it was never arch-independent anyway.

With the patch attached, we can bring up x86_64 domU to the point where
it tries to mount the root fs (see the log below). We are looking at
problems around blkif_connect at this point.

Patch below is needed to make my system work stable in PAE mode.
Havn't seen problems without PAE, not sure whenever thats just
pure luck or whenever there is a bug in my PAE xenlinux kernel.
To me it looks like a generic bug though.
I've actually trapped into problems with unpin only: A process
exits, somewhere in exit_mm() the page tables are unpinned,
shortly thereafter the mappings are cleared. While doing so the
kernel oopses in zap_pte_range(), on page table write access.
Probably due to some stale tlb entry where the page is still
tagged read-only.
xenstored_transaction.c, xenstored_core.h, xenstored_core.c, TODO:
Update TODO list
Wrap opendir in talloc so it gets cleaned up on OOM.
Remove last call to system by open-coding "cp -al" to create
transaction.

This is a patch to the README file to provide the missing
info on building from the source tree. It's by no means
clean, complete or even necessarily correct - just a first
draft to get the doc/instructions going.
All cleanups would be appreciated.

Fix the x86/64 build. My change to make PAGE_SIZE a signed quantity
also made it int rather than long, which turns out to break stuff.

The 32-bit x86 LTP exposed bugs with LDT handling with x86_64 Xen and
XenLinux:
- fill the code for arbitrary_virt_to_machine(XenLinux)
- set 64-bit value for the base address for LDT (Xen)
- fix a bug (64-bit cleanup) in map_ldt_shadow_page (Xen)

The attached patch now allows x86_64 xenlinux to run 32-bit x86 binaries
as the native x86_64 Linux does. I checked LTP using 32-bit binaries,
and got the same results on the native x86_64 Linux. At this point, 'int
0x80' is used for system calls, as it's unlikely that the fast systems
(sysenter or syscall) are significantly faster under the current
trampoline mechanism. However, it should be easy to replace
vsyscall-int80 with the fast system calls if one wants to do so (look at
USE_INT80 in the patch).
I found bugs with LDT handling in x86_64 Xen/XenLinux (exposed by 32-bit
LTP testcases fork05 and modify_ldt02), and the bugs have been fixed by
a separate patch in the next email:=20

The xc_domain_getinfo does not clear the info structure before filling
it in, and in some circumstances it doesn't completely fill in the
structure for each domain. In particular, it sets the crashed flag if
the domain has crashed, but does not clear it if the domain has not
crashed, so the crashed flag may be random stack garbage from the
calling program. With the attached patch (against the latest nightly),
xc_domain_getinfo zeroes the array of info structures before filling
them in.
