Just curious about the reason for falling-through. Absolutely. This is the leftover from an initial (and pretty over-engineered) approach where the caller was using HVC_SOFT_RESTART with the address of mutate_to_vhe passed as the target. It was an interesting idea, but obtaining the PA for the function ended when the MMU is on created a separate, harder to maintain path. Cleanup time, I guess. Thanks, M. -- Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible. _______________________________________________ kvmarm mailing list kvmarm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/kvmarm
