similar to: [patch 7/9] lguest: the net driver

1) Bridging via host is broken: we need to set "promisc" bit in MAC address published by the host so the guest sends us everything. Thanks James Morris for the report (I don't use bridging). 2) Lguest network device uses 0 to mean "noone at this slot". It used to use 0xFF, and one spot was missed. Minor: it just means we'll have a useless extra transmit

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

Hi all, These are the patches I'm planning to submit for 2.6.24. Comments gratefully accepted. Along with the usual cleanups and improvements are Jes' de-i386-ification patches, and a new "virtio" mechanism designed to be shared with KVM (and hopefully other hypervisors). Cheers, Rusty.

plain text document attachment (lguest64-loader.patch) I noticed that the lguest loader code for i386 was in Documentation/lguest. Well, that's fine (I guess) but it can't just be for i386. So I made a separate directory to put the loader code in. So now we have: Documentation/lguest/i386/... for the lguest i386 loader. and Documentation/lguest/x86_64/... for the lguest x86_64

Lguest drivers need to default to "Y" otherwise they're never selected for new builds. (We don't bother prompting, because they're less than 4k combined, and implied by selecting lguest support).
