Hello,
While testing some things out, I found a possible bug in Xen. Xen would
successfully run when loaded (from u-boot) at some addresses but not
others. I didn't observe this issue in 4.11 stable, so I did a bisect
and found that:

Hello,
I want to make the first contribution for xen. I want to participate with:
Introduce CONFIG_PDX and use it in Xen hypervisor
Where can I start?
I have few years of C programming experience but never had contributed to

Currently only suspend power control requests wait for an ack from the

Introduce a 1 minute wait for the domain to acknowledge the request, or

Hi,
I am reviving the thread. I think we need a patch similar to this one for Xen
4.13. This is because generic are now used by Xen so they should be hidden from
the hardware domain.
Andrii, Oleksandr, can one of you look at it?
Cheers,

Without this patch, the following assertion may be hit:

This is because libxl__domain_create_info_setdefault() currently only sets

This is mostly a cosmetic patch to avoid the default enumeration value
being 'enabled'. The only non-cosmetic parts are in xl_parse.c where it now
becomes necessary to explicitly parse the 'enabled' value for xl.cfg

The main purpose is patch 2. The "l1tf-barrier" work currently causes a perf
hit and gains no safety, and is therefore unfit for inclusion into Xen 4.13 at
this time.
See individual patches for changes from v1.

The code generation for barrier_nospec_true() is not correct; the lfence
instructions are generally too early in the instruction stream, resulting in a
performance hit but no additional speculative safety.
This is caused by inline assembly trying to fight the compiler optimiser, and
the optimiser
There are legitimate circumstance where array hardening is not wanted or
