As far as I can see, nothing has been applied to any tree, neither qemu.git nor qemu-kvm.git. > Do you mean that I should not submit this patch until the KVM's patch is merged back? You still need to submit a fixed version of this patch against qemu-kvm.git, uq/master branch (which is qemu.git effectively). Then Marcelo or Avi can pick it up and push it to upstream. Once it's merged there, qemu-kvm.git will update from upstream, and you will have your patch applied to both trees.
