Xen 4.5.1 released

[Jan Beulich]

All,

I am pleased to announce the release of Xen 4.5.1. This is
available immediately from its git repository
http://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/stable-4.5 
(tag RELEASE-4.5.1) or from the XenProject download page
http://www.xenproject.org/downloads/xen-archives/xen-45-series/xen-451.html 
(where a list of changes can also be found).

We recommend all users of the 4.5 stable series to update to this
first point release.

Regards,
Jan

I don't believe this release has the qemu-xen-traditional half of XSA-135. 
If this wasn't deliberate it might be worth noting it somewhere.

You're right.  It appears that the patch for XSA-135 was never applied
to qemu-traditional, due to an oversight.

The XSA-135 fix was missing everywhere.  I have now applied it (to all
trees 4.1 and onward).

Out of interest, is the plan now to re-release a fixed 4.5.1 archive or
document the lack of the XSA135 patches and allow people to patch manually?

Only documenting the issue is the plan.
