%define module kvm
Name: dkms-%{module}
Version: 10
Release: 0.1
Summary: DKMS package for the %{module} kernel module
Group: System Environment/Kernel
License: GPL
URL: http://kvm.sourceforge.net
Source0: %{module}-%{version}.tar.gz
Source1: %{module}-dkms.conf
BuildRoot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root-%(%{__id_u} -n)
BuildArchitectures: noarch
Requires: dkms
%description
This driver provides hardware-assisted Kernel-based virtualization,
utilizing the QEMU BIOS and device emulation. Requires an Intel-VT or
or AMD-SVM capable processor. KVM extends the existing kernel and user
execution modes to include a third: guest.
Virtual machines created with KVM are Linux processes, and behave
similarly to dosemu operating in vm86 mode: they can be scheduled,
traced, killed, etc. All VM I/O is done by trapping to userspace.
On x86_64 platforms, KVM supports both 32-bit and 64-bit
guests.
This package provides the kernel driver module. It is used
in conjunction with the kvm userpace tools.
