[Xen-devel] Re: X86_emulate to be moved into qemu...

When using x86_emulate.c inside qemu, we'd need to feed in the virtual

the info that way [and CAN I even do that]? [And I'm sorry if this

my complete and utter ignorance of how Xen and QEMU operates together,
but I'm afraid that I'm still learning these things].
Yes, you could walk pagetables. But equally you can pass in your
translated CR2 value --- i.e., pass in a pseudophysical address. That
address will then be passed to the special read/write hook functions,
so you avoid needing to do the translation inside those.
Another interesting question is what we do with the dozen or so "new"
include-files that are needed to make x86_emulate.c compile inside the
tools/ioemu directory. At the moment, I've just created directories
inside tools/libxc and linked the necessary header files into those
directories... Is that the proper solution?
What header files are those? It builds in tools/test/ without so many
header files.
