This release fixes the -std-vga regression which bothered those of us
who have large or widescreen monitors (note the option is now named
'-vga std' due to upstream qemu changes). Other significant changes
include better disk performance if you have a fast host storage subsystem.
Changes from kvm-76:
- merge bochs-bios-cvs
- merge qemu-svn
- more -cpu options
- faster disk emulation (esp. with scsi/virtio)
- improved NMI support (Jan Kiszka)
- improve >4GB memory support (Alex Williamson)
- memory alias cleanups (Glauber Costa)
- fix kvmtrace segfault (Ryota OZAKI)
- make external module compile on split source/object configs (Alexander
Graf)
- allows compiling on opensuse
- fix -std-vga regression
- fix migration failure at end of migration protocol
- map mmio pages for device assignment (Weidong Han)
- silence lapic kernel messages (Jan Kiszka)
- fix vcpu reset (Gleb Natapov)
- fix missed invlpg on EPT-enabled machines with EPT disabled (Marcelo
Tosatti)
- device assignment on ia64 (Xiantao Zhang)
- memory type support on EPT (Sheng Yang)
Notes:
If you use the modules bundled with kvm-77, you can use any version
of Linux from 2.6.16 upwards. You may also use kvm-77 userspace with
the kvm modules provided by Linux 2.6.25 or above. Some features may
only be available in newer releases.

I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this
signature is too narrow to contain.
