Sorry for the Bugzilla spam on virt-maint. Removing virt-maint from CC/assignee. This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux major release. Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Major release. This request is not yet committed for inclusion. This issue has been proposed when we are only considering blocker issues in the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. It has been denied for the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. ** If you would still like this issue considered for the current release, ask your support representative to file as a blocker on your behalf. Otherwise ask that it be considered for the next Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. ** This patch http://harpoon.virt.bos.redhat.com/~ehabkost/kvm-patches/kvm-0006-avoid-cancelling-ide-dma.patch I think shall be ported to rhel6 and I posted it to rhvirt-patches with Message-ID: <20100721152112.GZ24928> I'm uncertain about: http://harpoon.virt.bos.redhat.com/~ehabkost/kvm-patches/kvm-KSM-suspend-fix.patch If ksm needs that, khugepaged may need that too. This patch http://harpoon.virt.bos.redhat.com/~ehabkost/kvm-patches/kvm-enable-sysenter-on-32bit-guests-skype-fix.patch is already being handled in bug 614537 All others are obsolete or upstream. Patch kvm-KSM-suspend-fix.patch is obsolete because RHEL6 will not freeze tasks that didn't run set_freezable. However I wonder if set_freezable()+try_to_freeze() is still needed in ksmd and khugepaged to avoid the risk of issuing I/O during suspend to disk if an allocation triggers swapout. Hugh thinks it's not needed but I'm discussing with him about this. I'll open separate bug for rhvirt-patches with Message-ID: <20100721152112.GZ24928>. In the end (after noticing kswapd also uses try_to_freeze) I opened bug 617430. So everything has been forward ported and handled through other bugzillas, this bugzilla can be closed, thanks! Closed per previous comment. |
