Hi all, Lguest is a simple hypervisor which runs Linux under Linux, without needing VT hardware. Two people asked if I had a version of lguest which worked on other-than-bleeding-edge-mm kernels, so I did a backport of the latest version to 2.6.21. http://lguest.ozlabs.org/lguest-2.6.21-254.patch.gz See Documentation/lguest/lguest.txt for how to run, drivers/lguest/README for the draft code

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

This is a new version of the unified lguest launcher that applies to the current tree. According to rusty's suggestion, I'm bothering less to be able to load 32 bit kernels on 64-bit machines: changing the launcher for such case would be the easy part! In the absence of further objections, I'll commit it. Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> -- =

Add four new ioctl's for the operations that can't be done through sysfs. The existing bridge ioctl's are multiplexed, and most go through SIOCDEVPRIVATE so they won't work in a mixed 32/64bit environment. The new release of bridge-utils will use these if possible, and fall back to the old interface. diff -Nru a/include/linux/if_bridge.h b/include/linux/if_bridge.h ---

Currently the lguest32 error messages from bad reads and writes prints a decimal integer for addresses. This is pretty annoying. So this patch changes those to be hex outputs. This is applied on top of my debug patch.

Hi all, Glauber and I have been playing around with getting paravirt ops working on the x86_64. We have our own version of lguest running there too. We have lguest64 running up to console_init, and then it takes an interrupt storm. I'll be posting those patches tomorrow. Glauber and I have been sharing a git repo that isn't open to the public. (we don't want people to see how

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

Andrew did a great job of merging in the PDA->percpu changes and lguest code for 2.6.21-mm1, but the load_gdt is now unnecessary.

Hi all, Glauber and I have been looking into porting lguest over to the x86_64. We've spent the last couple of weeks just trying lguest out and seeing how far we can "force" it over to x86_64. This was more of just a learning experience to get our feet wet in lguest since we are still very green at it. I also notice that lguest moves very fast (we were still working on

hello, I am using 2.6.21, lguest-2.6.21-307.patch.gz and an image from http://uml.nagafix.co.uk/Fedora7/Fedora7-x86-root_fs.bz2 the console hangs, is this expected or caused by the image? I can still ssh to it or if I boot in single user mode the console is available but running init3 and it's hung. also is it possible to get the last gz patch released for 2.6.21?
