[FFE] Pull Xen-4.4 into Trusty

Test builds uploaded to https://launchpad.net/~smb/+archive/xen

Rebuild of qemu and libvirt will be required to depend on the correct libxl. Especially libvirt which otherwise segfaults when launching a guest with the libxl driver.

Adding block-proposed to let it wait for at least libvirt to do a no-change rebuild before moving out.

Are you ready to upload this now?

If all you care about is having libvirt built against the new soname then you don't need block-proposed. britney will take care of that on her own.

I am ready. Though I cannot upload myself. I uploaded things to my PPA (ppa:smb/xen) but I cannot upload to the main archive. The block-proposed was a safety-latch that Adam suggested.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

+10 for this FFE! :-D

Please get this into the archive ASAP. There will be things we'll need to fix (like arm64 support), but let's sort that after it's in, rdeps rebuilt, and everything seems sane on x86.

FFe approved.

This and its rdeps have been sponsored to trusty.

Qemu and libvirt rebuild. Let the chaos begin (unblocking).

This bug was fixed in the package xen - 4.4.0-0ubuntu3

---------------
xen (4.4.0-0ubuntu3) trusty; urgency=low

  * Fixing up changelog history and preparing for FFE (LP: #1290743).

xen (4.4.0-0ubuntu2) trusty; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/tools-ocaml-disable-test.patch: This disables the ocaml
    test build for now until linking issues are resolved.
  * debian/xen-utils-common.xen.init: Write domid for dom0 into xenstore
    (now required).

xen (4.4.0-0ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=low

  * New upstream release (Xen.4.4)
  * Refreshed patches:
    - debian/patches/tools-libxc-abiname.diff
    - debian/patches/tools-libxl-abiname.diff
    - debian/patches/tools-libxl-prefix.diff
  * debian/rules.real: Force xend to be built.
  * debian/rules.real: For utils_<arch> installation move binaries from
    usr/sbin/ to usr/lib/xen-<version>/bin. Several that used to go into
    the private bin directory moved to the public sbin directory.
    Not ideal but quicker to do without side-effects.
  * debian/rules.real: Hypervisor has no .gz type on armhf.
  * debian/control, debian/rules.gen: Manually update version from 4.3 to 4.4.
  * debian/control: Add build dependency for libfdt-dev on armhf.
  * debian/control: Only depend on qemu-system-x86 for i386 and amd64 builds.
  * debian/*: Also rename several versioned packaging files.
  * debian/tree/xen-utils-common/usr/share/xen-utils-common/default.xen:
    Add comment about toolstack names and make xl the default.
