Re: vsyscall mapping issues
It seems that QEMU has the same issue as Xen with vsyscall (their fast
emulator can't map kernel virtual addresses > 0xa8000000) so they created a
kernel patch to dynamically generate the "fixed" symbol FIXADDR_TOP from a
config parameter, and to have the Makefile generate the .lds file used to
build the vsyscall DSO images. It seems to me that a similar solution can be
used for Xen.
