Log Message:
Initial import of Xen 4.2:  this is the tools part.  This is mostly
functional for PV domains.  Support for HVM domains and grant tables
is still to come.  Note that xm/xend is deprecated in this version.
You should switch to using xl (which is tested to be working) if
you can.

            format specification

    This release contains many bug fixes and improvements (around
    100 since Xen 4.2.1). The highlights are:

----- 4.2.0

The Xen 4.2 release contains a number of important new features
and updates including:

The release incorporates many new features and improvements to
existing features. There are improvements across the board including
to Security, Scalability, Performance and Documentation.

    XL is now the default toolstack: Significant effort has gone
in to the XL tool toolstack in this release and it is now feature
complete and robust enough that we have made it the default. This
toolstack can now replace xend in the majority of deployments, see
XL vs Xend Feature Comparison. As well as improving XL the underlying
libxl library has been significantly improved and supports the
majority of the most common toolstack features. In addition the
API has been declared stable which should make it even easier for
external toolstack such as libvirt and XCP's xapi to make full use
of this functionality in the future.

    Large Systems: Following on from the improvements made in 4.1
Xen now supports even larger systems, with up to 4095 host CPUs
and up to 512 guest CPUs. In addition toolstack feature like the
ability to automatically create a CPUPOOL per NUMA node and more
intelligent placement of guest VCPUs on NUMA nodes have further
improved the Xen experience on large systems.  Other new features,
such as multiple PCI segment support have also made a positive
impact on such systems.

    Improved security:  The XSM/Flask subsystem has seen several
enhancements, including improved support for disaggregated systems
and a rewritten example policy which is clearer and simpler to
modify to suit local requirements.

    Documentation: The Xen documentation has been much improved,
both the in-tree documentation and the wiki. This is in no small
part down to the success of the Xen Document Days so thanks to all
who have taken part.
