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. List of

plain text document attachment (lguest64-device.patch) We started working a little bit on the devices for lguest64. This is still very much a work-in-progress and needs much more work.

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.

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

[ Ingo, Thomas cc'd in case this issue effects normal jiffies clock too? ] When the Host TSC is unreliable or can change, lguest guests use the jiffies clock. However, the clock value seems to creep upwards in sub-jiffies increments, and then tick_handle_periodic() goes into an infinite loop. Instead, the host writes the current time into the lguest page on every interrupt. This
