Xen Patches README
------------------

These patches are intended to be stacked on top of genpatches-base.

Many of the patches included here are swiped from various sources which
use their own four digit patch numbering scheme, so we are stuck with five
digits to indiciate the source for easier tracking and re-syncing.

Numbering
---------

0xxxx	Gentoo, not related to Xen. (in case we pull something from extras)
2xxxx	Suse, we are using their Xen patch for 2.6.22
5xxxx	Gentoo, Xen and other fixes for Redhat and/or Debian patches.

Patches
-------

0xxxx_linux-2.6.22.???
    Kernel.org 2.6.22.y releases that are not included in genpatches.

2xxxx_???
    Xen patches from Suse's kernel. Note that they are named *.patch1
    to make sure unipatch does the correct thing.

50001_make-install.patch
    Handle make install in a semi-sane way that plays nice with
    split domU/dom0 kernels.

50002_always-enable-xen-genapic.patch
    Compile fix for non-SMP (UP) kernels. Since UP support is broken in
    upstream Xen I'm not sure if I trust it or not. :-P

50009_gentooify-tls-warning.patch
    Change tls warning instructions to apply directly to Gentoo.
