File xenpaging.qemu.flush-cache.patch of Package xen
Subject: xenpaging/qemu-dm: add command to flush buffer cache. Add support for a xenstore dm command to flush qemu's buffer cache. qemu will just keep mapping pages and not release them, which causes problems for the memory pager (since the page is mapped, it won't get paged out). When the pager has trouble finding a page to page out, it asks qemu to flush its buffer, which releases all the page mappings. This makes it possible to find pages to swap out agian.
