Actually, that reminds me... How does your code interface with ksm? Or
is there no interaction needed since you're always working on virtual
addresses?

This reminds me, I consider this feature potentially extremely useful for
kernel debugging. So I would like to make sure we don't implement anything
in a way which would preclude that in the long term.

I agree and please do point out if I have made any implementation decisions that could preclude that.

Thanks,
Khalid
