Re: Add a qemu interface for sharing memory between guests.
Hi Cam, Here are the two patches for KVM describing what I have done. I am continuing to work on it and still mulling a move to virtio. These don't apply against the current tree, but I can provide those patches if you would like to see them. http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/38355/ http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/38347/ We're you interested in using the shared memory for something in particular or were you just looking for a to-do task to pick up? Let me know if you have any questions, Cheers, Cam I just saw your the mail. I was just going through the To-Do task to pick up and work on a task. I was going through the paper presented by Francois Diakhate´on Inter-VM communications and tinkering with the code. Would be great if you could send me the patch for the running kernel.
