[ANNOUNCE] kvm-kmod-2.6.33

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Now that 2.6.33 is out, time to release the corresponding kvm-kmod
package as well. Not much has happened since 2.6.33-rc6, though.

KVM changes since kvm-kmod-2.6.33-rc6:
 - PIT: control word is write-only
   (fixes side-effects of spurious reads)
 - kvmclock: count total_sleep_time when updating guest clock
   (requires >= 2.6.32.9 as host, falls back to unfixed version
   otherwise)

kvm-kmod changes:
 - warn about kvmclock issues across host suspend/resume
 - detect host kernel extra version to make use of fixes in stable
   series

See [1] for the delta to 2.6.32.

I also released kvm-kmod-2.6.32.9 with basically the same changes. That
may be the last release based on that kernel, but nothing is set in
stone yet (specifically as we already maintain kvm-kmod-2.6.32
internally for a customer).
