Things like tools/power may make sense, most of the code is tied to the kernel interfaces. tools/kvm is 20k lines and is likely to be 40k+ lines or more before it is generally usable. The proportion of the code that talks to the kernel is quite small. -- error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function -- 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
