Hrm, I was actually thinking that each of the VMI calls would be an
export (vmi_init, vmi_set_pxe, etc.). I know that you want the
hypervisor to drive the inlining but I that's sufficiently hairy (not
to mention, there's not AFAIK performance data yet to justify it) that
I think it ought to be left for VMI 2.0.
That seems quite ok to me. It is a little weird to have the VMI calls
be an export when some of them really can never be properly callable C
functions, and you have to overwrite the native code, so the linking
step is .. well this magic disassembly glue again. But it could be made
to work, and we have discussed it before.
Multi-licensing is fine as long as one is GPL :-)
I agree. But it sort of defeats the point of the GPL if you can
optionally redistribute the code under the BSD license as well.
