Subject: [uml-devel] Host kernel requirements for UML
Date: Wed, 3 Aug 2005 15:18:05 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050803094805.GA6090@in.ibm.com> (raw)

Hi,
	I am trying to get a quick answer for a question I had on UML.
As I understand, UML kernel makes use of host kernel's 
system call interface for its functionality. The questions is, does the
host kernel need to support *all* system calls or only a subset?
Does UML rely on /proc or any other such filesystems on host?
This is assuming that we want all possible features inside UML.
