However, v6.0 seems inconsistent in what parts of this debugging functionality it exposes, probably just because someone hasn't thought comprehensively about the topic across the whole document. I'll make sure that it gets looked at in the next revision (which should be a lot sooner that the 2+ years it took to get the v6.0 revision done). But I won't be surprised if the remaining vestiges are removed at that time, in which case we would want to move the definitions from hyperv-tlfs.h to KVM's hyper.h. Michael
