v2 -> v3 - Don't make a special case for WdfCoInstaller* files. There is a difference of opinion about whether copying these is necessary, but it seems like it is not harmful. Rich.

https://github.com/rwmjones/libguestfs/tree/rewrite-virtio-copy-drivers Instead of trying to split and parse elements from virtio-win paths, use the '*.inf' files supplied with the drivers to control how Windows drivers are installed. The following emails best explain how this works: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2015-October/msg00352.html

Hi all! We're debating the design of the balloon for the OASIS spec. Noone likes the current one, but there are fundamental usage pattern questions which we're fumbling with. So if you know anyone who is using it in production? If, so, how? In particular, would you be happy with guests simply giving the host back whatever memory they can s...

Hi, I''m working on the following topic from the xen roadmap as a part of an academic project: "Improve interaction between balloon driver and page allocator to avoid memory crunch." I have a few doubts regarding what exactly needs to be done: 1. Should the working of the balloon driver be same as in the case of VMware ESX balloon driver? ( http://www.vmware.com/pdf/usenix_resource_mgmt.pdf ) 2. Should the ba...

Now, VM has a feature to migrate non-lru movable pages so balloon doesn't need custom migration hooks in migrate.c and compact.c. Instead, this patch implements page->mapping ->{isolate|migrate|putback} functions. With that, we could remove hooks for ballooning in general migration functions and make balloon compaction simple.
