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, 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.

From: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> lguest is a simple hypervisor for Linux on Linux. Unlike kvm it doesn't need VT/SVM hardware. Unlike Xen it's simply "modprobe and go". Unlike both, it's 5000 lines and self-contained. Performance is ok, but not great (-30% on kernel compile). But given its hackability, I expect this to improve, along with 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

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. -- Steve

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
