Hi,

Compiling KVM-87 failed with following error:

make -C /lib/modules/2.6.29-gentoo-r5/build M=`pwd` \
                LINUXINCLUDE="-I`pwd`/include -Iinclude \
                 -Iarch/x86/include -I`pwd`/include-compat \
                -include include/linux/autoconf.h \
                -include `pwd`/x86/external-module-compat.h " \
                "$@"

GCC-4.3.2-r3, kernel 2.6.29-gentoo-r5.

Compiling worked fine with KVM-86.

I got the same error on Ubuntu 9.04 (2.6.28-11-generic). Debian 5 (2.6.26-2-amd64) works.

Compiling worked fine with KVM-86.

kvm-87 is fairly compile-broken on 32-bit hosts. I need to improve my compile testing infrastructure, or make the kvm-xx release candidate process public.

You can work around it by replacing 'boot_cpu_data.x86_phys_bits' in vmx.c by the constant 40.
