[PATCH 0/7] Modify lguest32 to make room for lguest64
Hi all,
I've been working on lguest64 and in order to do this, I had to move
a lot of the i386 specific out of the way. Well, the lguest64 port
is still not ready to display, but before Rusty makes too many changes
I would like this in upstream so I don't have to keep repeating my
changes :-)
So this patch series moves lguest32 out of the way for other archs.

NULL pointer dereference at __switch_to() ( __unlazy_fpu ) with lguest PAE patch
Hi,
For some days I have been looking for the bug that causes an easily reproducible oops in the guest
when I apply my PAE support _draft_ patch (appended at the end of this mail) to lguest.
This is the oops:
Setting kernel variables...done.
Will now mount local filesystems:.
Will now activate swapfile swap:done.
Cleaning /tmp...

[PATCH 1/7] lguest documentation: infrastructure and Chapter I
The netfilter code had very good documentation: the Netfilter Hacking
HOWTO. Noone ever read it.
So this time I'm trying something different, using a bit of
Knuthiness.

[PATCH 0/5] lguest feedback tidyups
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

[PATCH 0/2 v05] lguest: TSC & hrtimers
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.

[PATCH 1/3] Documentation and example updates
1) Example code: old libc headers don't have SIOCBRADDIF, and old zlibs
don't have gzdirect() -- it's a sanity check anyway.
2) Some people don't build in their source directories, so .config
isn't there (thanks to Tony Breeds <tony@bakeyournoodle.com>).
3) Point out that guest and host kernel are usually the same.
4) Set the "no checksum" option on the

[PATCH 0/8] lguest
As promised to Andrew, and with much thanks to Andi Kleen for feedback,
this is the new series of lguest patches.
Main change is the move to drivers/lguest (for future non-i386
expansion), but lots of cleanups driven by Andi's feedback and the
documentation effort (which made me examine every line of code).
It's not perfect, but it's definitely useful.
Cheers,
Rusty.

[PATCH 1/2] lguest: handle dodgy/non-existent TSC. Host code.
Lguest currently requires a TSC, which breaks older machines and Matt
Mackall who boots the host with "notsc". In addition, there is no
good solution to changing TSC speeds (informing all the guests about
the TSC impending change before it happens would be a great deal of
code and have issues with disobedient guests).
This patch makes the host determine if the TSC is both constant and
