Subject: [ANNOUNCE] kvm-48 release
Date: Thu, 18 Oct 2007 18:58:11 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <471790A3.5080704@qumranet.com> (raw)

kvm-47 had a host memory corruption bug when setting the guest pte dirty 
bit, so here's kvm-48 with a fix.

Note that guest time accounting, below, will only work with Linux 2.6.24+.

Changes from kvm-47:
- use precise cpu accounting on ppc and s390 (Christian Borntraeger)
- make guest time accounting actually work (Laurent Vivier)
- fix host memory corruption when setting the guest dirty bit
- allow swapping with older userspace (Anthony Liguori)
- allow custom memory setup using libkvm (Gerd Hoffmann)

Notes:
     If you use the modules bundled with kvm-48, you can use any version
of Linux from 2.6.9 upwards.
     If you use the modules bundled with Linux 2.6.20, you need to use
kvm-12.
     If you use the modules bundled with Linux 2.6.21, you need to use
kvm-17.
     Modules from Linux 2.6.22 and up will work with any kvm version from
kvm-22.  Some features may only be available in newer releases.
     For best performance, use Linux 2.6.23-rc2 or later as the host.
