[RFC PATCH v2 00/13] nommu UML

[Christoph Hellwig]

Maybe I'm missing something, but where does this discussion about
killing nommu even come from?  Nommu is a long standing and reasonable
well maintained part of the kernel, why would anyone want to kill it
for no good reason?  I know quite a lot of products shipping it.

Btw, nommu UML certainly sounds interesting to me, at least indirectly.
I have a project for next year or so for which the linux kernel library
or something like it would be useful to run an in-kernel workload as
a user space process if needed.  nommu uml sounds like a really good
base for that as there basically won't be any userspace that needs
memory protection to start with.
