Hi KVM devs, I'm trying to write a guest kernel module (or modify kernel code) to do the following :
Say I have a kvm guest with 512 MB RAM running on a host with 2 GB RAM. Now I run a process on the host that will cause increasing memory pressure which will in turn cause the host to swap out some of the guests pages (without the guest knowing). My guest kernel module will randomly access some of its physical pages (say read a byte from a page) and time the accesses. In theory an attempt by the guest to access a page that has been swapped out by the host should take much longer than accessing a page that is in memory. Since I'm still a novice can someone advise/guide me on this and let me know if I'm missing something crucial in my assumptions ? I'm using an amd64 machine with host/guest kernel 2.6.22 and kvm-64 Thanks in advance a. rn -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
