Allow extra application objects to be linked against a partial link of minios with non-global names localised. For now we assume that global names ill be assigned a xenos_ prefix in due course. We may decide to choose a different prefix. Those who wish to finish the link from an external Makefile can link their own objects against mini-os.o (which must be first in link order!) and specify the appropriate architecture linker script.

Minimal OS ---------- This shows some of the stuff that any guest OS will have to set up. This includes: * installing a virtual exception table * handling virtual exceptions * handling asynchronous events * enabling/disabling async events * parsing start_info struct at start-of-day * registering virtual interrupt handlers (for timer interrupts) * a simple page and memory allocator * minimal libc support Stuff it doesn't show: * modifying page tables * network code * block-device code - to build it just type make. - to start it do the following in domain0 (assuming xend is running) # xm create domain_config this starts the kernel and prints out a bunch of stuff and then once every second the system time.
