Hi,
Does Linux kernel for MIPS assumes that its link address is always
in Kseg0?
What if I change the link address to somewhere in useg?
Your page fault handlers will be in for an interesting time. ;o)
What you describe can be, and is done, for virtualized kernels
running on top
of a hypervisor, but there's a bit more involved than just changing
the link address.
You just caught that. Thats what I am trying to evaluate. What all I
would need to do apart from changing the link address. I am working on
a bare metal hypervisor for MIPS architecture.
Any pointers?
I've done a design of something like this for a non-MIPS architecture,
but I'd prefer someone who's done this for MIPS (and I know that there
are people out there who have) advise you.
