+config XEN_BALLOON
+ bool "Xen memory balloon driver"
+ default y
+ help
+ The balloon driver allows the Xen domain to request more memory from
+ the system to expand the domain's memory allocation, or alternatively
+ return unneeded memory to the system.
+
+config XEN_SELFBALLOONING
+ bool "Dynamically self-balloon kernel memory to target"
+ depends on XEN && XEN_BALLOON && CLEANCACHE && SWAP && XEN_TMEM
+ default n
+ help
+ Self-ballooning dynamically balloons available kernel memory driven
+ by the current usage of anonymous memory ("committed AS") and
+ controlled by various sysfs-settable parameters. Configuring
+ FRONTSWAP is highly recommended; if it is not configured, self-
+ ballooning is disabled by default. If FRONTSWAP is configured,
+ frontswap-selfshrinking is enabled by default but can be disabled
+ with the 'tmem.selfshrink=0' kernel boot parameter; and self-ballooning
+ is enabled by default but can be disabled with the 'tmem.selfballooning=0'
+ kernel boot parameter. Note that systems without a sufficiently
+ large swap device should not enable self-ballooning.
+
+config XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG
+ bool "Memory hotplug support for Xen balloon driver"
+ default n
+ depends on XEN_BALLOON && MEMORY_HOTPLUG
+ help
+ Memory hotplug support for Xen balloon driver allows expanding memory
+ available for the system above limit declared at system startup.
+ It is very useful on critical systems which require long
+ run without rebooting.
+
+ Memory could be hotplugged in following steps:
+
+ 1) dom0: xl mem-max <domU> <maxmem>
+ where <maxmem> is >= requested memory size,
+
+ 2) dom0: xl mem-set <domU> <memory>
+ where <memory> is requested memory size; alternatively memory
+ could be added by writing proper value to
+ /sys/devices/system/xen_memory/xen_memory0/target or
+ /sys/devices/system/xen_memory/xen_memory0/target_kb on dumU,
+
+ 3) domU: for i in /sys/devices/system/memory/memory*/state; do \
+ [ "`cat "$i"`" = offline ] && echo online > "$i"; done
+
+ Memory could be onlined automatically on domU by adding following line to udev rules:
+
+ SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ACTION=="add", RUN+="/bin/sh -c '[ -f /sys$devpath/state ] && echo online > /sys$devpath/state'"
+
+ In that case step 3 should be omitted.
+
+config XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_LIMIT
+ int "Hotplugged memory limit (in GiB) for a PV guest"

+ default 4 if X86_32
+ range 0 64 if X86_32
+ depends on XEN_HAVE_PVMMU
+ depends on XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG
+ help
+ Maxmium amount of memory (in GiB) that a PV guest can be
+ expanded to when using memory hotplug.
+
+ A PV guest can have more memory than this limit if is
+ started with a larger maximum.
+
+ This value is used to allocate enough space in internal
+ tables needed for physical memory administration.
+
+config XEN_SCRUB_PAGES
+ bool "Scrub pages before returning them to system"
+ depends on XEN_BALLOON
+ default y
+ help
+ Scrub pages before returning them to the system for reuse by
+ other domains. This makes sure that any confidential data
+ is not accidentally visible to other domains. Is it more
+ secure, but slightly less efficient.
+ If in doubt, say yes.
+
+config XEN_DEV_EVTCHN
+ tristate "Xen /dev/xen/evtchn device"
+ default y
+ help
+ The evtchn driver allows a userspace process to trigger event
+ channels and to receive notification of an event channel
+ firing.
+ If in doubt, say yes.
+
+config XEN_BACKEND
+ bool "Backend driver support"
+ depends on XEN_DOM0
+ default y
+ help
+ Support for backend device drivers that provide I/O services
+ to other virtual machines.
+
+config XENFS
+ tristate "Xen filesystem"
+ select XEN_PRIVCMD
+ default y
+ help
+ The xen filesystem provides a way for domains to share
+ information with each other and with the hypervisor.
+ For example, by reading and writing the "xenbus" file, guests
+ may pass arbitrary information to the initial domain.
+ If in doubt, say yes.
+
+config XEN_COMPAT_XENFS
+ bool "Create compatibility mount point /proc/xen"
+ depends on XENFS
+ default y
+ help
+ The old xenstore userspace tools expect to find "xenbus"
+ under /proc/xen, but "xenbus" is now found at the root of the
+ xenfs filesystem. Selecting this causes the kernel to create
+ the compatibility mount point /proc/xen if it is running on
+ a xen platform.
+ If in doubt, say yes.
+
+config XEN_SYS_HYPERVISOR
+ bool "Create xen entries under /sys/hypervisor"
+ depends on SYSFS
+ select SYS_HYPERVISOR
+ default y
+ help
+ Create entries under /sys/hypervisor describing the Xen
+ hypervisor environment. When running native or in another
+ virtual environment, /sys/hypervisor will still be present,
+ but will have no xen contents.

+
+config XEN_GRANT_DEV_ALLOC

+ depends on XEN
+ default m
+ help
+ Allows userspace processes to create pages with access granted

+ or as part of an inter-domain shared memory channel.

+
+config XEN_PCIDEV_BACKEND
+ tristate "Xen PCI-device backend driver"
+ depends on PCI && X86 && XEN
+ depends on XEN_BACKEND
+ default m
+ help
+ The PCI device backend driver allows the kernel to export arbitrary
+ PCI devices to other guests. If you select this to be a module, you
+ will need to make sure no other driver has bound to the device(s)
+ you want to make visible to other guests.
+
+ The parameter "passthrough" allows you specify how you want the PCI
+ devices to appear in the guest. You can choose the default (0) where
+ PCI topology starts at 00.00.0, or (1) for passthrough if you want
+ the PCI devices topology appear the same as in the host.
+
+ The "hide" parameter (only applicable if backend driver is compiled
+ into the kernel) allows you to bind the PCI devices to this module
+ from the default device drivers. The argument is the list of PCI BDFs:
+ xen-pciback.hide=(03:00.0)(04:00.0)
+
+ If in doubt, say m.
+
+config XEN_SCSI_BACKEND
+ tristate "XEN SCSI backend driver"
+ depends on XEN && XEN_BACKEND && TARGET_CORE
+ help
+ The SCSI backend driver allows the kernel to export its SCSI Devices
+ to other guests via a high-performance shared-memory interface.
+ Only needed for systems running as XEN driver domains (e.g. Dom0) and
+ if guests need generic access to SCSI devices.

+
+config XEN_STUB
+ bool "Xen stub drivers"
+ depends on XEN && X86_64 && BROKEN
+ default n
+ help
+ Allow kernel to install stub drivers, to reserve space for Xen drivers,
+ i.e. memory hotplug and cpu hotplug, and to block native drivers loaded,
+ so that real Xen drivers can be modular.
+
+ To enable Xen features like cpu and memory hotplug, select Y here.
+
+config XEN_ACPI_HOTPLUG_MEMORY
+ tristate "Xen ACPI memory hotplug"
+ depends on XEN_DOM0 && XEN_STUB && ACPI
+ default n
+ help
+ This is Xen ACPI memory hotplug.
+
+ Currently Xen only support ACPI memory hot-add. If you want
+ to hot-add memory at runtime (the hot-added memory cannot be
+ removed until machine stop), select Y/M here, otherwise select N.
+
+config XEN_ACPI_HOTPLUG_CPU
+ tristate "Xen ACPI cpu hotplug"
+ depends on XEN_DOM0 && XEN_STUB && ACPI
+ select ACPI_CONTAINER

+ Xen ACPI cpu enumerating and hotplugging
+
+ For hotplugging, currently Xen only support ACPI cpu hotadd.
+ If you want to hotadd cpu at runtime (the hotadded cpu cannot
+ be removed until machine stop), select Y/M here.
+
+config XEN_ACPI_PROCESSOR
+ tristate "Xen ACPI processor"
+ depends on XEN && X86 && ACPI_PROCESSOR && CPU_FREQ
+ default m
+ help
+ This ACPI processor uploads Power Management information to the Xen
+ hypervisor.
+
+ To do that the driver parses the Power Management data and uploads
+ said information to the Xen hypervisor. Then the Xen hypervisor can
+ select the proper Cx and Pxx states. It also registers itself as the
+ SMM so that other drivers (such as ACPI cpufreq scaling driver) will
+ not load.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be
+ called xen_acpi_processor If you do not know what to choose, select
+ M here. If the CPUFREQ drivers are built in, select Y here.
