This makes sense to me. We use upstream MiniOS now (with some patches to support installation as a library), so we don't need to do anything special to benefit from your patches if you submit them upstream. Have you sent an RFC to xen-devel to get other people's reaction to this? I can't imagine it'll be too contentious if other uses (such as the qemu stub domain) are also fixed up to support this. -anil ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ rumpkernel-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rumpkernel-users
