Changes from kvm-27: - fix host oops on guest context switch - many code cleanups (Nguyen Anh Quynh, others) - prepare kernel for guest smp - update libkvm for guest smp - update testsuite for guest smp - emulate hlt in real mode (avoids crash when booting from unformatted disk) - initialize ata ports for Fedora 7 guests (Luca Tettamanti) Notes: If you use the modules from kvm-28, you can use any version of Linux from 2.6.9 upwards. If you use the modules from Linux 2.6.20, you need to use kvm-12. If you use the modules from Linux 2.6.21, you need to use kvm-17. API/ABI stability is planned for Linux 2.6.22. http://kvm.qumranet.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
