[PATCH 02/16] adapt lguest launcher to per-cpuness

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch makes uses of pread() and pwrite() in lguest launcher
to communicate the vcpu id to the lguest driver. The id is kept in
a thread variable, which means we'll span in the future, vcpus as
threads. But right now, only the infrastructure is out there.
