Yes, I think that looks much nicer. Nitpick: The documentation now says "[The function returns] KERN_INVALID_HOST if host was not the privileged host port", maybe just "... was not a valid host port". > (I can't reuse the intran, since the obtained host_t is the same in > non-priv and priv cases). Ah, I didn't know that. But your solution looks reasonable to me. Cheers, Justus
