It is a good companion to the qemu-kvm-0.10 series. Note that performance and features will vary with the host kernel used. Changes from kvm-kmod-2.6.30 - update source to Linux 2.6.30.1 - don't ignore machine check events (Huang Ying, Andi Kleen) - disable large pages on misaligned memory slots - prevent overflow on largepage calculation - check cr3 validity when set from userspace (Marcelo Tosatti) - handle vmx instructions in guest userspace - fix tlb flush race (Marcelo Tosatti) - fix dirty bit tracking with large pages (Izik Eidus) - fixes live migration with large pages - fix preempt warning with kvmclock (Matt T.
