Subject: [PATCH 7/8] Page-align the GDT
Date: Wed, 07 Mar 2007 00:01:47 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1173186107.4644.41.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1173186021.4644.38.camel@localhost.localdomain>

Xen wants a dedicated page for the GDT.  I believe VMI likes it too.
lguest, KVM and native don't care.

Simple transformation to page-aligned "struct gdt_page".
