2011-03-16xen-balloon: Add interface to retrieve ballooned pagesKonrad Rzeszutek Wilk
Pages that have been ballooned are useful for other Xen drivers doing grant table actions, because these pages have valid struct page/PFNs but have no valid MFN so are available for remapping.

2011-03-16xen-balloon: Move core balloon functionality out of moduleDaniel De Graaf
The basic functionality of ballooning pages is useful for Xen drivers in general. Rather than require a dependency on the balloon module, split the functionality that is reused into the core. The balloon module is still required to follow ballooning requests from xenstore or to view balloon statistics in sysfs.

2008-10-03xen: remove unused balloon.hJeremy Fitzhardinge
The balloon driver doesn't have any externally callable functions at the moment, so remove the (effectively empty) header. We can add it back if we need to. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-04-24xen: add balloon driverJeremy Fitzhardinge
The balloon driver allows memory to be dynamically added or removed from the domain, in order to allow host memory to be balanced between multiple domains. This patch introduces the Xen balloon driver, though it currently only allows a domain to be shrunk from its initial size (and re-grown back to that size). A later patch will add the ability to grow a domain beyond its initial size.
