- Netback (drivers/net/xen-netback). This is a big accomplishment since it means that stock v2.6.39 has now a full stack to run guests (the QEMU qdisk can serve as blkback backend). - PVonHVM can now use PV spinlocks. - /dev/gntalloc, which is a driver that can be used from userspace to allocate pages to be shared with guests. - Xen Watchdog driver (/dev/watchdog) which has the same API as any watchdog driver. - 1-1 identity mapping in P2M. Allows us to automatically figure out if a page is for an I/O hole or not based on the E820 (means certain drivers work now) - IRQ code has been reworked to be dynamic so that we are not limited to running 155 guests. - Making the balloon driver ready for memory hotplug patches and gntalloc. - Lots and lots of cleanup patches.A toto sa nepodarilo pri 2.6.39 dokoncit:
- Making the TTM layer use the DMA API. This would have allowed us to use the radeon/nouveau driver under Xen without trouble.
