Subject: [patch 3/6] Page-align the GDT
Date: Fri, 30 Mar 2007 19:00:45 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070331020054.990278862@goop.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070331020042.003398870@goop.org>
[-- Attachment #1: i386-gdt-cleanups-page-align-the-gdt.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3467 bytes --]
Xen wants a dedicated page for the GDT. I believe VMI likes it too.
lguest, KVM and native don't care.
Simple transformation to page-aligned "struct gdt_page".
