1config XEN_BALLOON 2 bool "Xen memory balloon driver" 3 depends on XEN 4 default y 5 help 6 The balloon driver allows the Xen domain to request more memory from 7 the system to expand the domain's memory allocation, or alternatively 8 return unneeded memory to the system. 9 10config XEN_SCRUB_PAGES 11 bool "Scrub pages before returning them to system" 12 depends on XEN_BALLOON 13 default y 14 help 15 Scrub pages before returning them to the system for reuse by 16 other domains. This makes sure that any confidential data 17 is not accidentally visible to other domains. Is it more 18 secure, but slightly less efficient. 19 If in doubt, say yes. 20 21config XEN_DEV_EVTCHN 22 tristate "Xen /dev/xen/evtchn device" 23 depends on XEN 24 default y 25 help 26 The evtchn driver allows a userspace process to triger event 27 channels and to receive notification of an event channel 28 firing. 29 If in doubt, say yes. 30 31config XENFS 32 tristate "Xen filesystem" 33 depends on XEN 34 default y 35 help 36 The xen filesystem provides a way for domains to share 37 information with each other and with the hypervisor. 38 For example, by reading and writing the "xenbus" file, guests 39 may pass arbitrary information to the initial domain. 40 If in doubt, say yes. 41 42config XEN_COMPAT_XENFS 43 bool "Create compatibility mount point /proc/xen" 44 depends on XENFS 45 default y 46 help 47 The old xenstore userspace tools expect to find "xenbus" 48 under /proc/xen, but "xenbus" is now found at the root of the 49 xenfs filesystem. Selecting this causes the kernel to create 50 the compatibility mount point /proc/xen if it is running on 51 a xen platform. 52 If in doubt, say yes. 53 54config XEN_SYS_HYPERVISOR 55 bool "Create xen entries under /sys/hypervisor" 56 depends on XEN && SYSFS 57 select SYS_HYPERVISOR 58 default y 59 help 60 Create entries under /sys/hypervisor describing the Xen 61 hypervisor environment. When running native or in another 62 virtual environment, /sys/hypervisor will still be present, 63 but will have no xen contents.
