- PV multiconsole support, so that there can be hvc1, hvc2, etc;
- P-state and C-state power management driver that uploads said
power management data to the hypervisor. It also inhibits cpufreq
scaling drivers to load so that only the hypervisor can make power
management decisions - fixing a weird perf bug.
- Function Level Reset (FLR) support in the Xen PCI backend.
Fixes:
- Kconfig dependencies for Xen PV keyboard and video
- Compile warnings and constify fixes
- Change over to use percpu_xxx instead of this_cpu_xxx

Merge tag 'stable/for-linus-3.4-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen
Pull xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"which has three neat features:
- PV multiconsole support, so that there can be hvc1, hvc2, etc; This
can be used in HVM and in PV mode.
- P-state and C-state power management driver that uploads said power
management data to the hypervisor. It also inhibits cpufreq
scaling drivers to load so that only the hypervisor can make power
management decisions - fixing a weird perf bug.
There is one thing in the Kconfig that you won't like: "default y
if (X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ = y || X86_POWERNOW_K8 = y)" (note, that it
all depends on CONFIG_XEN which depends on CONFIG_PARAVIRT which by
default is off). I've a fix to convert that boolean expression
into "default m" which I am going to post after the cpufreq git
pull - as the two patches to make this work depend on a fix in Dave
Jones's tree.
- Function Level Reset (FLR) support in the Xen PCI backend.
Fixes:
- Kconfig dependencies for Xen PV keyboard and video
- Compile warnings and constify fixes
- Change over to use percpu_xxx instead of this_cpu_xxx"
Fix up trivial conflicts in drivers/tty/hvc/hvc_xen.c due to changes to
a removed commit.
* tag 'stable/for-linus-3.4-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen:
xen kconfig: relax INPUT_XEN_KBDDEV_FRONTEND deps
xen/acpi-processor: C and P-state driver that uploads said data to hypervisor.
xen: constify all instances of "struct attribute_group"
xen/xenbus: ignore console/0
hvc_xen: introduce HVC_XEN_FRONTEND
hvc_xen: implement multiconsole support
hvc_xen: support PV on HVM consoles
xenbus: don't free other end details too early
xen/enlighten: Expose MWAIT and MWAIT_LEAF if hypervisor OKs it.
xen/setup/pm/acpi: Remove the call to boot_option_idle_override.
xenbus: address compiler warnings
xen: use this_cpu_xxx replace percpu_xxx funcs
xen/pciback: Support pci_reset_function, aka FLR or D3 support.
pci: Introduce __pci_reset_function_locked to be used when holding device_lock.
xen: Utilize the restore_msi_irqs hook.

this driver.

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the

will depend on arch specific APIs exported from hvcserver.ko

which will also be compiled when this driver is built as a
