Much like each network driver is NIC specific. You could think up a framework into which hypervisor specific balloon drivers plug in, but you'll find that in each driver 85% of the code is devoted to talking to the hypervisor, 15% is outdated comments, and the rest is a call to alloc_pages() and a call to free_pages(). -- error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
