http://wiki.aranym.org/natfeats/proposal >> “On emulators implementing MMU and where physical addresses differ from >> logical addresses, the memory that will be accessed by native features >> uses the logical addresses (that is, exactly the same memory than that >> seen by the CPU).” I just looked around for a way to get the physical address of locked memory from user-space in Linux, but there doesn’t appear to be one, besides maybe /proc/$$/pagemap but cat(1) hangs when I try to read it, so effectively none. For detecting whether we run under virtualisation, this would have been the way to go.

Thus I have just fixed it (fix available in ARAnyM CVS, file >src/include/natfeat.h). Thanks! >I suppose the maintainer could grab the patch from CVS and apply it to >ARAnyM in wheezy? Or I may prepare a 0.9.15 release of ARAnyM... I can probably NMU it, the maintainer isn’t a DD IIRC. Antonin, is that okay with you? .oO(We probably should also talk anyway whether you’d want me to comaintain this…) I think that, since a newer upstream version is in sid anyway, we have to go through testing-proposed-updates already, so maybe putting together a 0.9.15 with all fixes would be good, which we can add to unstable, and I’ll apply the fix on top of 0.9.13 in wheezy? bye, //mirabilos -- ☎ <Natureshadow> Ich glaub ich hab mir grad mit dem [Ham]Burger die Nase abge‐ putzt… <mirabilos> Ich glaub ich hab ne neue eMail-Signatur <Natureshadow> Scheiße, warum passiert mir sowas immer, wenn ich mit dir spre‐ che? *hust* Das war Schnodderburger… *hust* -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
