[PATCH 0/6] i386 virtualization patches, Set 3
This round attempts to conclude all of the LDT related cleanup with some
finally nice looking LDT code, fixes for the UML build, a bugfix for
really rather nasty kprobes problems, and the basic framework for an LDT
test suite. It is really rather unfortunate that this code is so
difficult to test, even with DOSemu and Wine, there are still very nasty
corner cases here - anyone want an iret to

[PATCH 0/7] Using %gs for per-cpu areas on x86
OK, here it is. Benchmarks still coming. This is against Andi's
2.6.18-rc7-git3 tree, and replaces the patches between (and not
including) i386-pda-asm-offsets and i386-early-fault.
One patch is identical, one is mildly modified, the rest are
re-implemented but inspired by Jeremy's PDA work.
Thanks,
Rusty.

[patch 0/6] i386 gdt and percpu cleanups
Hi Andi,
This is a series of patches based on your latest queue (as of the
other day, at least).
It includes:
- the most recent patch to compute the appropriate amount of percpu
space to allocate, using a separate reservation for modules where
needed.
- make the percpu sections page-aligned, so that percpu variables can
be page aligned if needed (which is used by gdt_page)

Per-cpu patches on top of PDA stuff...
Hi Jeremy, all,
Sorry this took so long, spent last week in Japan at OSDL conf then
netconf. After several false starts, I ended up with a very simple
implementation, which clashes significantly with your work since then
8(. I've pushed the patches anyway, but it's going to be significant
work for me to re-merge them, so I wanted your feedback first.
The first patch simply changes
