RE: IA64 on Xen support

[Luck, Tony]

Sure - the bits there worked once - but have been stale for several releases.  With nobody actively
supporting this things will only get worse.

Subject: IA64 on Xen support

Tony, Fenghua,


We had a discussion at the last Xen Summit about status of Linux' IA64 
Xen. Xen itself dropped IA64 support in 4.2 (it is approaching 4.4 now) 
and it's not clear whether we can even build Linux/Xen/IA64 against 
latest Xen sources, let alone run it.

The proposal at the summit was to remove Xen-related bits from IA64 in 
Linux. Any objections to this?


Thanks.
-boris
