[patch 1/6] remove alias support

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

 



Aliases were added to workaround kvm's inability to destroy
memory regions. This was fixed in 2.6.29, and advertised via
KVM_CAP_DESTROY_MEMORY_REGION_WORKS.

Also, alias support will be removed from the kernel in July 2010.
