Branch: CURRENT, Version: 3.0.4, Package name: xenkernel30-3.0.4, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Xen is a virtual machine monitor for x86 hardware (runs only on
i686-class CPUs), which supports running multiple guests operating
systems on a single machine. Guest OSes (also called "domains")
require a modified kernel which supports Xen hypercalls in replacement
to access to the physical hardware. At boot, the xen kernel is loaded
(via grub) along with the guest kernel for the first domain (called
domain0). domain0 has privileges to access the physical hardware (PCI
and ISA devices), administrate other domains and provide virtual
devices (disks and network) to other domains.

This package contains the Xen3 kernel itself.

Log message:
Renamed xen*30 to xen*3
   2007-04-28 19:14:54 by Manuel Bouyer | Files touched by this commit (34) 
Log message:
Update xen 3.0 packages to 3.0.4.
pksgrc changes: install man pages for xm, xend-config.sxp and xmdomain.cfg.
Should fix pkg/36190.

Main changes:
This is largely an opportunistic stabilising release for HVM guests, due to
the large amount of work in that area of the code since 3.0.3. These
enhancements have in particular improved support for SMP and ACPI Linux and
Windows operating systems.

Log message:
Update to 3.0.3. I don't have a comprehensive list of changes, only
"many new features". One looks promising:
- a new easy-to-use CPU scheduler which includes weights, caps,
  and automatic SMP load-balancing;
