Ask the kbuild people to fix that? 

It indeed looks ugly.

I bet Xen et.al. could make good use of that too.

an .S file with .incbin is more efficient and simpler
(note it has to be an separate .S file, otherwise icecream/distcc break) 

It won't allow to show off any sed skills, but I guess we can live with that ;-)

Statics? looks funky.  Why only a single hypervisor_vma?

This cries for asm_offsets.h too, doesn't it?

Wasteful because of the rounding. Probably wants reintroduction
of alloc_pages_exact()

Shouldn't you clean up the GDTs too?

Shouldn't there be a printk here?

Nasty, but ok.

No externs in .c files

No fault checking? 

lhread/write use probably also needs to be double checked that a malicious
guest can't put the kernel into a loop.

We have macros and defines for this in standard headers.

Probably needs freezer checking here somewhere.

1?  And what is that good for anyways?

Yes what then? Have you tried it?

In general i miss printks when things go wrong. Do you expect
all users to have a gdbstub ready? @)

error checking? How do you avoid loops?

cpu hotplug?

Might be safer to vet for isprint here

At least older gccs will accumulate the bufs in a function, eventually possibly blowing
the stack. Better use a function.

switch is not cool enough anymore?

i suspect mutexes are the new way to do this

Risky? Use probe_kernel_address et.al.?

Remove?

It does.

What's wrong with the standard cpuid*() macros?

No externs in .c

Can you just statically initialize this and then copy over?

This will be %fs soon.


... haven't read everything else. the IO driver earlier was also not very closely looked at.
