You can extract the list of running processes from a qemu crash dump without looking at guest registers. And most vcpus are running asynchronously to qemu, so their register contents is irrelevant (if a vcpu is running synchronously with qemu - it just exited to qemu and is waiting for a response - then you'd see the details in qemu's call stack). -- 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
