I've prepared the patches and changelog entries, how do I get it signed
off? I've been searching the website for the patch procedure and couldn't
find it, sorry.

Thank you

Hi,

The first problem is that kvm fails to detect the kernel source directory
correctly..

In "configure" the line
   kernelsourcedir=${kerneldir%/*}/source

Only works if ../source is the build parent (e.g. if the source dir is
/lib/modules/<version>/source)

The first patch fixes that. The next is a build problem:

-Iarch/${ARCH_DIR}/include

should be: -I$(KERNELSOURCEDIR)/${ARCH_DIR}/include

In the case of out of place builds. The second patch fixes that.

Cheers, James
