building cubes how to include custom patches

[ludwig...@gmail.com]

Hi all,

I would like to patch some sources of xen and would like to know how

to introduce the patches into the build system.

Regards,

Ludwig

There is a patch directory somewhere in the build environment where
custom Qubes patches get applied to the Xen kernel. It may be inside the
chroot filesystem, but I don't have a build VM handy to confirm. Run
something like "sudo find -name *patch*" at the top level of your build
machine and I think you can find it, then check the make file that
applies the patches to add your own.

Put with the other patches in vmm-xen, and adjust xen.spec.in
