Well, as far I know the rpi3 is the *only* aarch64 hardware which is easily available and can (with these patches) run kvm. More powerful stuff with more ram and sata storage and gbit network (which I'd love to have to play with arm virt on real hardware) is announced to be available really soon now since ... half a year at least? cheers, Gerd -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
