Re: [PATCH 0/5] Add support for ppc64le in kvmtool

[Laurent Vivier <lvivier@redhat.com>]

Hi,


could you add "kvmtool" in the subject, next time, please? :)
And it could be a good idea to send to kvm-ppc ML too.

I was trying to use kvmtool on ppc64, some days ago, and I was not able
to run anything (yes, I'm stupid), So could you also update the README
with some ppc64/ppc64le stuff explaining how to use kvmtool on POWER?

Or give me a link to the information, and I'll do.

Thanks,
Laurent
