* lguest: clean up example launcher compile flags.Rusty Russell2009-06-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | 18 months ago 5bbf89fc260830f3f58b331d946a16b39ad1ca2d changed to loading bzImages directly, and no longer manually ungzipping them, so we no longer need libz. Also, -m32 is useful for those on 64-bit platforms (and harmless on 32-bit). Reported-by: Ron Minnich <rminnich@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

* Introduce guest mem offset, static link example launcherRusty Russell2007-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | In order to avoid problematic special linking of the Launcher, we give the Host an offset: this means we can use any memory region in the Launcher as Guest memory rather than insisting on mmap() at 0. The result is quite pleasing: a number of casts are replaced with simple additions. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
* Make lguest_launcher.h types userspace-friendlyRusty Russell2007-10-23
| | | | | | | | | lguest_launcher.h uses "u32" not "__u32", which sets a bad example. Fix that, and include <linux/types.h>. This means we need to use -I on the Launcher build line so types.h is found. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
* lguest: avoid shared libraries mapped over guest memoryRonald G. Minnich2007-08-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some versions of ld.so mmap the shared libraries right in over guest memory, so compile lguest statically by default. [ FC7 maps shared libraries very low, where the launcher maps guest's physical memory. Quick fix is to link Launcher static, real fix is for 2.6.24. ] -static is a simple fix. I expect this problem will be more common than we like, as different distro's make different "improvements" to ld.so Signed-off-by: Ronald G.

* link lguest example launcher non-staticRusty Russell2007-07-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | S.Caglar Onur points out that many distributions don't ship a static zlib. Unfortunately the launcher currently maps virtual device memory where shared libraries want to go. The solution is to pre-scan the args to figure out how much memory we have, then allocate devices above that, rather than down from the top possible address. This also turns out to be simpler.

* lguest: the documentation, example launcherRusty Russell2007-07-19
A brief document describing how to use lguest. Because lguest doesn't have an ABI we also include an example launcher in the Documentation directory.
