Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" X-Mailer: Evolution 3.4.4-1 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org The following two patches (one for Xen, one for Linux) switch Xen event channels from unsigned long to xen_ulong_t. On arm, this enables us to have the same interface on arm32 and arm64 because xen_ulong_t is a 64-bit type on ARM. On x86 there is no change because xen_ulong_t is unsigned long on x86. Since this is an ABI change on ARM I hope we can get this in for the 3.9 merge window. I have deferred the other changes which I previously posted along side this since they are not so critical. Ian.
