KVM Hardware Inquiry Tool One of the things I have on my todo list is a tool you can run on your machine that tells you which virtualization features it supports. Imaginary output of such a tool: -- KVM Supported: yes NPT/EPT: yes Device Assignment: no Expected Virtual CPU Speed: 95% -- That way users can easily determine what to expect when they run KVM on a machine without need to know about CPUID flags that don't even get exposed in /proc/cpuinfo or grepping dmesg. My main question on this one is how to best implement it. Should this be part of qemu? We'll need some architecture specific backend code, so leveraging the structure might be helpful. Should this be a separate script? That'd mean installing one more application that distros might name differently :(. Does it even have chances to get accepted upstream? Alex
