Doesn't seem to but it looks like madvise might be enough to make that happen. That BTW is an issue for more than UML - it has a bearing on running lots of Linux instances on any supervisor/virtualising system like S/390 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
