Because it's doing a very weird hack: building some kernel code into a userspace binary, used for just for testing. This is all not part of kernel build intentionally, no one is supposed to use this binary in production, but it was helpful in finding bugs in virtio core in the past so I keep it around. -- MST _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
