Xeno Balloon driver supports two operations: 1. Inflating - which means domain giving up pages of mem to xen. 2. Deflating - which means reclaiming memory pages from xen. Currently, domain can only claim pages from xen up to the number of previously released ones. This is to change. Example: # balloon inflate 1000 Give up 1000 pages to xen. # balloon deflate 1000 Claim 1000 pages from xen.
