Right now, I have lguest in-tree module compiling on x86_64. It's not yet on a sendable state, since the module itself isn't loading. However, this subset of the series is pretty straightforward, and I'm sending it now aiming at reducing the delta size in the future ;-) Have fun,

lguest needs to hold a reference to its task in case it exits while another Guest is sending it I/O. Otherwise we can oops in access_process_vm->get_task_mm->task_lock().

The following patches are the latest update of the TSC and hrtimer patches I posted on 29/03. Rusty's original TSC patch has been resynced to the latest lguest repo, as has the hrtimer patch, which also incorporates feedback from Jeremy & Rusty: - Change clock event hrtimer to absolute time. 'now' is captured in the host during the hypercall. - Propagate -ETIME back to the

Hi all, Gratefully-received recent feedback from CC'd was applied to excellent effect (and the advice from Matt Mackall about my personal appearance is best unrequited). The patch is split in 5 parts to correspond with the 9 parts Andrew sent out before, but here's the summary: 1) Sparse (thanks Christoph Hellwig): - lguest_const can be static now - lguest.c should include

Christoph Hellwig said runs sparse: 1) page_tables.c unnecessary initialization 2) Change prototype of run_lguest and do cast in caller instead (when we add __user to cast, it runs over another line). Al Viro pointed out the ugly cast in push_lguest_stack(): 3) Stick with unsigned long for arg, removes 4 casts in total. Most importantly, I now realize that Christoph's incorrect ranting

Because of legacy-induced blindness, I insisted on separately building the hypervisor.S switcher code (which is mapped at 0xFFC0000 in host and guest). However, the lguest64 patches showed the error of my ways: it has no relocations, so it can be linked into the module like normal then remapped. The only downside is that we can no longer use sizeof(hypervisor_blob), so we need to allocate our
