Hi, the library is very i386 specific. Lots of addresses are just uint_32t which cause errors on 64bit architecture. I would like to port it on x86_64. I see two ways how this can be done: 1) Take x86_64 as another architecture supported by xenaccess. Add branch to e.g. xa_memory.c and implement functions such as linux64_access_kernel_symbol() with different prototype. 2) Patch the current code to use proper types (pid_t, pgd_t, void *, ptrint_t). What do you think? -- Tomas Kouba |
