From: Fu Wei <fu....@linaro.org> - This adds support for the Xen boot on ARM specification for arm64.
- The implementation for Xen is following <Multiboot on ARM Specification>: http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_ARM_with_Virtualization_Extensions/Multiboot and xen/docs/misc/arm/device-tree/booting.txt in Xen source code. - The multiboot/module commands have existed, so we use xen_hypervisor/xen_module instead. - This Xen boot support is built into linux module for aarch64, and can not be used alone. - Adding this functionality to the existing "linux" module is for reusing the existing code of devicetree. - Add the support of xen_hypervisor/xen_module commands in util/grub.d/20_linux_xen.in - Add the introduction of xen_hypervisor/xen_module commands in docs/grub.texi - The example of this support is <How to boot Xen with GRUB on AArch64 the Foundation FVP model> https://wiki.linaro.org/LEG/Engineering/Grub2/Xen_booting_on_Foundation_FVP_model_by_GRUB Changelog: v2: remove the patches which have been accepted. according to Vladimir's suggestion, change the command manes and relevant code: multiboot-->xen_hypervisor module-->xen_module improve the option parsing support for xen_hypervisor/xen_module commands. add a patch for adding xen_hypervisor/xen_module support in util/grub.d/20_linux_xen.in. update docs/grub.texi patch for the new command names. v1: The first version upstream patchset to grub-devel mailing list Fu Wei (3): arm64: Add Xen boot support file * util/grub.d/20_linux_xen.in: Add support of the XEN boot on aarch64 arm64: Add the introduction of xen_hypervisor/xen_module command in docs/grub.texi docs/grub.texi | 27 ++ grub-core/Makefile.core.def | 1 + grub-core/loader/arm64/linux.c | 6 + grub-core/loader/arm64/xen_boot.c | 615 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ include/grub/arm64/xen_boot.h | 115 +++++++ util/grub.d/20_linux_xen.in | 14 +- 6 files changed, 775 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) create mode 100644 grub-core/loader/arm64/xen_boot.c create mode 100644 include/grub/arm64/xen_boot.h -- 1.8.3.1 _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
