As a stop-gap measure until full dom0 support is ready in pv_ops, I've
placed a Linux 2.6.27 tree at
http://xenbits.xensource.com/ext/linux-2.6.27-xen.hg

Actually this is a Novell-patched 2.6.27 kernel -- see 00-README in the repo
for more details.

The intention is to give a single source tree to develop and test against
for those developers who need a more modern 2.6 kernel for advanced platform
work such as power management. Regular test and maintenance will continue to
focus on 2.6.18, with a grand switchover when pv_ops in kernel.org is
considered sufficiently ready.
