The ioctl interface isn't going away.
Maybe I misunderstood. When you said this: > I think we can start the syscall based API (with compatibility ioctls > for x86), now that we have all four archs looking at it. I thought you meant that all architectures would use the syscall interface, and x86 would only continue to support the ioctls as a legacy interface. In that case, I think kvm_main.c would basically need a rename to kvm_ioctl.c, and it would be built only for x86 so wouldn't need any portability. -- Hollis Blanchard IBM Linux Technology Center ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
