In mergeable buffer case, we use headcount, log_num
and seg as indexes in same-size arrays, and
we know that headcount = seg and
log_num equals either 0 or seg.
Therefore, the right thing to do is range-check seg,
not headcount as we do now: these will be different

That could work. But what's the purpose to have two drivers if one

Hi,
here is the next round of the svm feature support patches for qemu. Key
change in this version is that it now makes kvm{64|32} the default cpu

Otherwise I removed the NRIP_SAVE
This is Amos's patchset rebased, with some cleanups and additions:
- New method to generate MAC address prefixes
- Fix some tests to use new management
- Remove the dependency on address_pools.cfg
- Coding style fixes
We still have to do some work before the patches can be applied,

Old method uses the addresses in the config files which could lead serious
problem when multiple tests running in different hosts.
This patch adds a new macaddress pool algorithm, it generates the mac prefix
based on mac address of the host, and fix it to
The previous MAC address management breaks up the
physical_resources_check test (the test picks up NIC MAC parameters
from test parameters). Let's fix it by making it retrieve params
from the method VM.get_mac_address()

Since the previous patch introduces an automated management
mechanism for MAC addresses, let's simplify things a bit
by removing address_pools.cfg parsing from the control files,
as well as just removing address_pools.cfg.sample.

it is more reasonable.
