Hmmm... Actually looks like a bunch of architectures do lazy sync of the vmalloc area, although neither ia64 nor powerpc does so. However, all current users of the alloc_vm_area() function would be okay since none of the other lazy-syncing architectures are supported by Xen. -- Keir _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list [email protected] https://lists.osdl.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
