Did you happend to try the former extension with the QEMU or KVM backend already? Would be _very_ cool if such support became mainline (I'm tired of add-symbol-file with manually looked-up module addresses...). Is it possible to disable the SysRq interrupt for this use case? [ I still consider this variation of the original remote protocol an unfortunate decision of the kernel developers, but back then I wasn't able to convince them to change it. ] Jan
