This driver is used by application which wish to receive notifications
from the hypervisor or other guests via Xen's event channel
mechanism. In particular it is used by the xenstore daemon in domain
0.

config XEN_BALLOON
bool "Xen memory balloon driver"
depends on XEN
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_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"
depends on XEN
default y
help
The evtchn driver allows a userspace process to triger event
channels and to receive notification of an event channel
firing.
If in doubt, say yes.
config XENFS
tristate "Xen filesystem"
depends on XEN
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 compatibilty mount point /proc/xen if it is running on
a xen platform.
If in doubt, say yes.
