As indicated in reply to your patch changing XEN_FW_EFI_MEM_INFO in
the hypervisor: While this may fit the ESRT purpose, the address you
return here is not necessarily the start of the region, and hence
this function is not a general Xen replacement for the non-Xen
function. Therefore I think it also shouldn't give the impression of
doing so.

Is this just a matter of renaming the function?  Is it possible to
implement the original function with the current hypervisor?

Besides renaming the function perhaps it also shouldn't give the
impression of being generally usable. I would expect it to be a static
helper somewhere, or even be expanded inline.

Yes, but doing so would be ugly: You'd need to "bisect" your way to
the start of the region.

As an aside (I think I did point this out before): Can you please
adjust the way your mail program sends mails? When I respond to your
mail (using Thunderbird), I find all the people previously on Cc on
the To: list, while your address is lost. As indicated I believe
this is a result of the Mail-Followup-To: tag your reply came with
(and I further think that TB's treatment of that tag is a reasonable
one, albeit perhaps there are other reasonable treatments as well; I
am not aware of this tag having any formally specified treatment).

I would be fine with doing this, but I didn’t want to litter esrt.c with
Xen-specific code.  IIUC Linux prefers to avoid #ifdef in .c files.

This was a misconfiguration on my end: I marked xen-devel as subscribed
in my muttrc.  I fixed this and also unset followup_to, so the
Mail-Followup-To header should no longer be generated.  Please let me
know if this is still a problem.
