Yesterday I was working on it. I've put the code together, as I did last time,
now it's only time to debug it. However the two problems are:
1) I don't use a 64-bit arch normally (I have a ugly Fedora AMD64 installed).
2) when I did it last time, UML didn't boot and nothing in the patch made me
understood what was wrong.
I hope next week I can publish my version, even if I don't solve the problem,
so that eventually somebody will be able to fix it.
However, notice that what we can currently give is a port to run 32-bit UMLs.
Which is very nice, but not everything. On the host side, the 64-bit version
is probably ready and easier to debug than the 32-bit emulation.
The problem for 64-bit UMLs is that, to my knowledge, they must still get
support for 64-bit SKAS. It shouldn't be hard, I hope.
