I am following the instruction that I found here under "building an external module with older kernels": http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Code I ran: git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm-kmod.git cd kvm-kmod git submodule update --init ./configure --kerneldir=/lib/modules/2.6.38-8-generic/build make sync make I am at: commit bed5dfdeb11cf3a749396e4c353018bae5aff66f Author: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Jun 1 09:08:49 2011 +0200 Update source link Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@xxxxxxxxxxx> The kvm source comes from the kernel tree that is part of kvm-kmod i.e in the linux-2.6 directory.
