Subject: [PATCH 1/2] lguest preparation: EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL 5 functions
Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2007 14:41:38 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1171251698.10409.20.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1171251578.10409.17.camel@localhost.localdomain>

lguest does some fairly lowlevel things to support a host, which
normal modules don't need:

math_state_restore:
	When the guest triggers a Device Not Available fault, we need
	to be able to restore the FPU

__put_task_struct:
	We need to hold a reference to another task for inter-guest
	I/O, and put_task_struct() is an inline function which calls
	__put_task_struct.

access_process_vm:
	We need to access another task for inter-guest I/O.

map_vm_area & __get_vm_area:
	We need to map the switcher shim (ie. monitor) at 0xFFC01000.
