Oh - very good catch. Thanks. Looking at the code, ideally it would change to write_cr3(idle_pg_table), but that isn't going to include the additional CR4 changes. Leaving this in this form (with a NULL) check is probably best. ~Andrew _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xenproject.org https://lists.xenproject.org/mailman/listinfo/xen-devel
