Hi all,

in order to reduce the diff between qemu-kvm.git and upstream, getting 
rid of the kvm subdirectory would be nice. What bits there are actually 
still in use today?

 From the top of my head, I only remember running kvm_stat and 
scripts/vmxcap from time to time. Obviously, there is nothing actively 
built anymore during normal qemu production. So what is the role of, e.g.,

  - kvm/bios
  - kvm/extboot
  - kvm/vgabios
  - kvm/scripts

today? Anything there we want to push upstream? And then drop the rest?

Jan
