Whenever you ask a question, you're asking someone to work for you,
because it takes time and effort for someone to answer it. Even a short
e-mail response may take 5 minutes of reading, understanding, thinking,
and typing. To answer your question about the BUG() requires me to
download the repository you're using, look at and trace around code I've
never looked at before, and possibly to read and understand your code.
That's probably at least a half-hour of my time.
And that's OK. I like helping people, I like solving problems. It's
also an investment: if you become a good OS coder, the computer industry
as a whole (and myself included in that) benefit; and if you become
better at Xen, I benefit more directly.
However, I don't want to waste my time. How you can demonstrate to me
that you are committed to learning this, and that you are capable of
becoming an OS coder, is by demonstrating that you've spent effort and
thought on something before answering a question.
I'll take a closer look and try to answer your question either later
today or tomorrow.
