Have you an ETA on > the dom0 checkin? Ian, I'm shooting the next week, in a week or so. We've been making steady progress despite _numerous_ minor issus/problems. Jerone, it would be helpful if you take a look at 32-bit apps support (i.e. what does it take for us to support those in xenolinux64) because we are not proactively looking at the area at this point. There are a couple of minor fixes required in the hypervisor. For example, check_descriptor() in arch/x86/x86-64/mm.c needs to shift bits when comparing the value. /* The guest can only safely be executed in ring 3. */ if ( ((b & _SEGMENT_DPL) >> 13) != 3) { goto bad; } I'll send patches this week.
