This patch series implements a paravirtualization interface using:
- the device tree mechanism to pass hypervisor informations to the guest
- hypercalls for guest->host calls
- an example exploiter of that interface (magic page)
This is work in progress, but working so far. I just start to really exploit
the fuctionality behind the magic page mechanism therefor I can't provide any
performance improvements so far, but it is evolved enough for RFC and to start
the standardization discussion.
Are you aiming this for the current merge window, ie for 2.6.27?

Yours Tony
