But that said, we need guest kernel events like mmap and context switches too, otherwise we simply can't make sense of guest userspace addresses, we need to know the guest address space layout. So aside from a filesystem content, we first need mmap and context switch events to find the files we need to access. And while I appreciate all the security talk, its basically pointless anyway, the host can access it anyway, everybody agrees on that, but still you're arguing the case.. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
