Title:
RFC: virtio and virtio-scsi should be built in
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
Hi,
I was trying to verify bug 1677376 yesterday, and came to find out
that our kernel does not have virtio or virtio-scsi builtin drivers.
This generally has not been a problem as initramfs has been used.
However, as there is recently an interest in booting without initramfs
it would seem to make sense to have popular drivers builtin to -generic
to allow that.
Also, from a priority perspective, if we're going to have any block devices
builtin to the -generic kernel, then i'd think that virtio and virtio-scsi
would make more sense than an IDE driver.
I understand there are tradeoffs involved.
