[ANNOUNCE] kvm-15 release

[ANNOUNCE] kvm-15 release

[Avi Kivity]

The big news today is that live migration works with kvm (kvm-14 could 
do live migration, but only with -no-kvm).  See 
http://kvm.qumranet.com/kvmwiki/Migration for instructions.

Changes from kvm-14:
- live migration with kvm (Uri Lublin)
   - based on Anthony Liguori's qemu patches
- new userspace interface (work in progress)
- the usual random fixes

Note that if you use the modules from Linux 2.6.20, you need to use
kvm-12.  You can use kvm-15 with Linux 2.6.20, provided you use the
external module included in kvm-15.  API/ABI stability is planned for
Linux 2.6.21.

kvmfs in kvm-15 kernel code does not to build with older kernels (2.6.16
fails, 2.6.18 works ok), looks like the reason are some changes in
superblock handling.

Do you intend to fix that?

cheers,

Did you run the make sync under the svn kernel directory?
It uses sed to replace the f_path.dentry with backward compatible
f_dentry.

Yes, though it's rather low priority right now.  Patches will be applied.
