Hi Vladimir,
After discussing with Ian Campbell, Since we already can load all the necessary binaries for Xen boot on arm64 for now, we don't really need "xen_module" command now. But maybe someday , xen need a new type of binary in boot time, then we still need this support.
You mean support for "--type" passed to the xen_module command, right? I thought the xen_module stuff had been applied. Or am I misunderstanding which bits have been applied?
Actually, I mean: xen-module command is for "--type" support. If we don't need "--type" now, we can delete xen-module code(which has been deleted by Vladimir from my patch, so now, the upstream grub has not --type support). Vladimir has applied most of my patch, except xen-module command code.
So I will submit a "xen_module" command patch soon, in case we need it.
Just to clarify, my suggestion was to repost the bits which were omitted from the prior patches just so that they are available in the ML archives etc should anyone ever want to resurrect them in the future.
yes, that is what I am gonna do.
Ian.
