It is, but the hooks are in much the same places. It could be argued that you'd embed pte notifiers in paravirt_ops for a host kernel, but that's not doable because pte notifiers use higher-level data strutures (like vmas). -- Any sufficiently difficult bug is indistinguishable from a feature. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
