Subject: [PATCH v2 3/5] libxc: create unmapped initrd in domain builder if supported
Date: Fri, 2 Oct 2015 07:49:45 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1443764987-23639-4-git-send-email-jgross@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1443764987-23639-1-git-send-email-jgross@suse.com>
In case the kernel of a new pv-domU indicates it is supporting an
unmapped initrd, don't waste precious virtual space for the initrd,
but allocate only guest physical memory for it.
