Cameron,
now I am running the patched kernel in the guest and it's working.
I modprobed "kvm_jvshmem" and then I made the following steps:
num =`cat /proc/devices | grep kvm_ivshmem | awk '{print $1}`
mknod --mode=666 /dev/ivshmem c $num 0
I've added to the mknod command the "c" option, to create a character
device (in the original post it was "mknod --mode=666 /dev/ivshmem
$num 0", without that option). The file creation was succesful. So,
what's next? Could you send your own test programs?
Nevertheless, I will create some simple tests, writing and reading
from the device.
Thanks in advance,
Valdir.
