I have created a LXC container with debootstrap followed by virt-install like this: host=mylxc1 debootstrap wheezy /home/lxc/$host virt-install -c lxc:// -n $host --filesystem /home/lxc/$host,/ --ram 1024 I am confused about the /dev filesystem in this container. Specifically the device '/dev/tty'. >From inside the container: ~# ls -la /dev/tty ls: cannot access /dev/tty: No such

In looking at the code I realized that the last of the HAL depenencies were removed with this patch. So, I'm pushing an updated patch that contains none of the HAL code in it.

multiple queue virtio-net: flow steering through host/guest cooperation Hello all: This is a rough series adds the guest/host cooperation of flow steering support based on Krish Kumar's multiple queue virtio-net driver patch 3/3 (http://lwn.net/Articles/467283/). This idea is simple, the backend pass the rxhash to the guest and guest would tell the backend the hash to queue mapping when

As multi-queue nics were commonly used for high-end servers, current single queue based tap can not satisfy the requirement of scaling guest network performance as the numbers of vcpus increase. So the following series implements multiple queue support in tun/tap. In order to take advantages of this, a multi-queue capable driver and qemu were also needed. I just rebase the latest version of

Dear Sir, I was trying to install bridge as we are installing scps gateway in our testbed.This requires us to install the bridge. Our Linux version is 2.4.18 ~3 and we are using redhat 7.2 Please let me know which is the bridge I should install and how to configure it. Before configuring the bridge what I should check in my configuration. Thanks for your time, Sincerely Rama ===== I hear
