Description Cole Robinson 2021-06-14 14:25:48 UTC

ksm.service and ksmtuned.service shipped by qemu-kvm-common are entirely standalone, not tied to qemu in any technical way. In Fedora we split these packages a few years ago, and the sources are in their own repo upstream: https://github.com/ksmtuned/ksmtuned

For RHEL9 we should follow the Fedora split and ship a new top level ksmtuned package.

QE bot(pre verify): Set 'Verified:Tested,SanityOnly' as gating/tier1 test pass.

Comment 8 Yumei Huang 2021-12-28 06:11:18 UTC

Verify:
qemu-kvm-6.2.0-1.el9
ksmtuned-0.1.0-1.el9.x86_64
kernel-5.14.0-39.el9.x86_64

Install both qemu-kvm and ksmtuned package on host, and run all ksm test cases. Test passed.
