Hi,
I tried to call the following code in a kernel module:
error = do_path_lookup(AT_FDCWD, "/etc/profile.d/glib2.csh",
LOOKUP_PARENT, );
I exported the function do_path_lookup() using

There's an obvious typo in svm_{get,set}_idt, causing it to access the ldt

Because these functions are only called for save/load on AMD, the bug does not
impact normal operation. With the fix, save/load works as expected on AMD
hosts.
The following series of patches fixes several kvm problems. I believe
they are important and well-tested enough to be included in 2.6.20,

Sure, I'd even say "almost always" for recent disks. Still, they
count in GBs, not sectors.
OTOH it would be great if they say "xxx,xxx,xxx 512-byte sectors",
and maybe "approx. X GB".

Hi,
I write a driver have a big buffer (16MB,allocated by vmalloc).
I want to use the buffer to do DMA transmission so I need getting the pages
of the buffer.
Have any kernel API can do this?
My platform is x86_64 and 2GB RAM

This patch implements forwarding of SHUTDOWN intercepts from the guest
on to userspace on AMD SVM. A SHUTDOWN event occurs when the guest produces
a triple fault (e.g. on reboot). This also fixes the bug that a guest
reboot actually causes a host reboot under some circumstances.

Looks good to me, although I suppose it wouldn't hurt to include

This patch allows drm to populate an agpgart structure with pages of its own.
It's needed for the new drm memory manager which dynamically flips pages in and
out of AGP.
The patch modifies the generic functions as well as the intel agp driver. The

Ok, that's done. Same problem.
Just to show you I did not forget to remove processor.ko from initrd

Hello,
I reproducably get a kernel panic when plugging in a usb isdn modem,
Billion tiny USB ISDN TA 128).
It is said to work with the hfc_usb isdn drivers in the kernel, so I
compiled them into it.
Kernel is 2.6.20-rc5, gcc 3.4.6 on a via epia 5000 board.
Is there anything I can do? Shall I
memset() after kmalloc() on size * 8 would better be on size * 8, not
just size; fixed by switching to kcalloc() - it's more idiomatic anyway.
