Various patches to make supermin quieter. By outputting fewer messages on the fast path, we use the slow emulated UART less, and this improves boot times. Also remove some kernel modules that we cannot or should not be using, which also improves boot times. Rich.

Document what each module does, using *.mli files. Remove the --dtb option, it's obsolete. Rename modules according to their purpose. Rich.

DAX is explained in detail here: https://lwn.net/Articles/610174/ This patch adds support to supermin for using a DAX root filesystem. The corresponding libguestfs patches will be posted shortly once I've tested them a bit more. This requires qemu >= 2.6. Unfortunately it's not really a win for a few reasons: - Requires enabling ACPI, which slows everything down by hundreds of

This includes two kernel patches, scsi-target and IO_CMD_EPOLL_WAIT. The former is a modified version of the scsi target infrastructure in mainline. The latter enables applications to handle AIO and non-AIO fds in the same loop. blktap uses the different patch, AIO event queue patch for the same aim. The IO_CMD_EPOLL_WAIT patch will be merged into mainline (and the AIO event queue will not) so

Also drop the sr_mod module used by the deprecated guestfs_add_cdrom interface. --- src/ext2_initrd.ml | 5 ----- 1 file changed, 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/ext2_initrd.ml b/src/ext2_initrd.ml index 730f806..5e841ea 100644 --- a/src/ext2_initrd.ml +++ b/src/ext2_initrd.ml @@ -40,12 +40,7 @@ let kmods = [ "virtio*.ko*"; "libata*.ko*"; "piix*.ko*"; -

There is a new fallthrough pseudo-keyword macro that can be used to replace the various /* fallthrough */ style comments that are used to indicate a case label code block is intended to fallthrough to the next case label block.
