Hi Peter, I see SuSE has taken a fail back path to the code so the releases after 10.3 detects the presence of VMM and avoid the big real mode path. I think people from SuSE should be able to confirm it better for you. Thanks & Regards, Nitin Linux Open Source Technology Center Intel C

2007-06-08 Thread David Brown
I remember this bug before and I thought I figured it out by using the bootloader on the image instead of using the -kernel and -initrd commandline options to qemu. However, the guest just stopping has come back. For some reason using the latest kvm with 2.6.21 both in fedora 7 (kvm-25) and debian

1: I/F between user/kernel a: Similar with the question in kernel side, current I/F only support an IRQ set notification, we need clear notification too. Especially when guest use IMR to mask the interrupt. b: following code read irq from PIC which means IRR ->ISR, but kernel may
