At first I took the tack of simply preventing the redefinition of prototypes kvm-kmod was trying to override (based on what's in a vanilla 2.6.32 kernel), then hit a function __get_user_pages that has a prototype in PVE's headers different from the implementation of the same function in at least kvm-kmod-3.5. I may need to modify the function itself in kvm-kmod to work with the PVE kernel prototype, and prefer to avoid going that far.</div><div><br></div><div>Am I scoping this correctly, and has anyone else tried and succeeded?
