[kvm-devel] [PATCH] Allow for Cross compile of user tools

2007-10-01 Thread Jerone Young
This is the first of many patches to begin to make kvm source a lot better for compiling for other architecture support (that is not x86 or x86-64). This patch makes it possible so that someone on an x86 machine can cross compile for an x86-64 machine and vice versa. So now you will have config-$(

[kvm-devel] [PATCH] Correct management of REP prefix

2007-10-01 Thread Laurent Vivier
This patch corrects some errors appearing when we have an emulation failure on an operation using REP prefix. When x86_emulate_insn() fails, saving EIP and ECX is not enough as emulation should have modified other registers like RSI or RDI. Moreover, the emulation can fail on the writeback, and in
