This patch adds ability for kvm-userspace build system to sync needed kernel
headers locally without the need

Please just keep a copy of the kernel headers in the userspace tree so
it can be built standalone.
The tarballs do contain a copy of the kernel headers; the 'make sync'
mechanism is for developers to generate the tarballs

Indeed. Any comments from the kvm developers in this approach? The

What's your HEAD? I have a5b3d2c9b4d4ca3e02f294d14c7df016e070bda7,
which compiles fine.
OK, I found where is the problem: my KERNELDIR is not the good one.
Thank you for the answers.

In order to build kvm source successfully, we need to export
three symbols for kvm use. Please review. Maybe Avi can check-in to

What's it here? kvm-specific address space or generic vmas.
The patches in this thread.
Generic vmas will be more intrusive AFAICT.
