But it's not clear that waiting for longer will achieve either. Look at kvm's experience for the reverse case: it went in, then got rewritten. As for the code in Documentation, my initial attempts tried to get around the need for a userspace part by putting everything in the kernel module. It meant you could launch a guest by writing a string to /dev/lguest (no real ABI burden there), but it's a worse solution than some user code in the kernel tree 8( Cheers, Rusty. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
