I fixed a couple of bugs which could well be the root cause of these reports. Please retest with kvm trunk (or kvm-4270 from http://people.qumranet.com/avi if you don't wish to use subversion). One of the fixes is to the x86 instruction emulator. A symptom of a problem there is that kvm_stat reports a large and increasing number of pf_guest, but pf_fixed does not increase at all. -- error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
