[PATCH 1/3] Virtualization config cleanup: Select CONFIG_PARAVIRT when required
(Unless there are complaints, I'll push this as part of the lguest
patches for 2.6.24, since there are lguest config changes there too).
Andi points out that PARAVIRT is an option best selected when needed.
We introduce PARAVIRT_GUEST for the menu itself, and select PARAVIRT
if the user turns on anything which needs it.

[PATCH] make CONFIG_PARAVIRT require NO_HZ
Given all the discussion, let's just require NO_HZ when

[PATCH] no paravirt for X86_VOYAGER or X86_VISWS
From: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com>
Since Voyager and Visual WS already define ARCH_SETUP,
it looks like PARAVIRT shouldn't be offered for them.

[PATCH] Move KVM, paravirt, lguest, VMI and Xen under arch-level Virtualization option
Any objections?
Rusty.
===
Having KVM appear in the middle of "drivers" is kinda strange, and
having it alone under a menu called "virtualization" doubly so.
1) Move the "Virtualization" menu into the arch-specific i386 and
x86-64 Kconfig.
2) Add a help message to the menu.
3) Move CONFIG_PARAVIRT under CONFIG_VIRTUALIZATION
4) Move lguest into same menu.

[RFC, PATCH 7/24] i386 Vmi memory hole
Create a configurable hole in the linear address space at the top
of memory. A more advanced interface is needed to negotiate how
much space the hypervisor is allowed to steal, but in the end, it
seems most likely that a fixed constant size will be chosen for
the compiled kernel, potentially propagated to an information
page used by paravirtual initialization to determine interface
compatibility.

[PATCH 1/3] Normalize config options for guest support
Group all the "guest OS" support options together, under
CONFIG_PARAVIRT. Make this a proper menu item so it looks neater on
menuconfig etc, and make the wording for each prompt uniform.

[PATCH 0/4] paravirt clock series.
Respin of the paravirt clock patch series.
On the host side the kvm paravirt clock is made compatible with the
xen clock.
On the guest side some xen code has been factored out into a separate
source file shared by both kvm and xen clock implementations.
This time it should work ok for kvm smp guests ;)
cheers,
Gerd

[RFC, PATCH 4/24] i386 Vmi inline implementation
Macros to use VMI calls from assembly and C languages are introduced.
The macros are quite complex, but the end result is rather impressive.
The result is that when compiling a VMI kernel, the native code is
emitted inline, with no function call overhead, and some wiggle room
for register allocation. The hypervisor compatibility code is emitted
out of line into a separate section, and patched
