Maybe it is possible to reimplement the POSIX API in usermode using the

The correct answer is that HAL should top polling while the device is

In kernels starting with 2.6.23-rc6, the correct way to enable

Hi,
You can cause a recursion in kbuild/make with the following:
make O=$PWD kernel/time.o
make mrproper
Of course no one would use O=$PWD (that's just the testcase),

I don't think we need this patch. When SVM is disabled KVM will tell on
module load. Further with SVM-lock it will be possible to re-enable SVM
even if it was disabled by BIOS using a key. In this case the user of
SVM has to clear the capability bit you set in this patch for all cpus.

Hi list,
could anyone tell me why there is no official memzero function (or macros) in
the kernel. As I see a lot of kernel parts calls for it (defying own macros
as alias to memset). Maybe there is a special reason not to do so? Actually
my suggestion is to define _one_ general macros for this.
In a stock 2.6.22.6 kernel, poweroff a user mode linux guest
(2.6.22.6 running in skas0 mode) will halt the host linux. I
think the reason is the kernel thread abort because of a bug.
Then the sys_reboot in process of user mode linux guest is
not trapped by the user mode linux kernel and is

This turned out to be a gcc bug -- I was using an old cross-compiler.

Good points. Well I'd say hiding it all behind a friendly
immediate_set() interface is the best option then.
Then we can't benefit of the __init section to have the code removed
after boot. I don't see the point in doing so.

In a stock 2.6.22.6 kernel, poweroff a user mode linux guest
(2.6.22.6 running in skas0 mode) will halt the host linux. I
think the reason is the kernel thread abort because of a bug.
Then the sys_reboot in process of user mode linux guest is
not trapped by the user mode linux kernel and is
Hi list,
could anyone tell me why there is no official memzero function (or macros) in
the kernel. As I see a lot of kernel parts calls for it (defying own macros
as alias to memset). Maybe there is a special reason not to do so? Actually
my suggestion is to define _one_ general macros for this.
-static volatile int kgdb_hwbreak_sstep[NR_CPUS];
+volatile int kgdb_hwbreak_sstep[NR_CPUS];
That looks fishy to me. Why is it volatile-qualified? And does that
actually want to be a per-cpu var?
