Description Roland McGrath 2010-06-18 22:04:10 UTC

Description of problem:

It would be nice for the virt-top display to show some the statistics about ksm (from /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/* files) in some pretty way.  i.e., memory shared, memory saved by sharing (sharing-shared), etc.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-top-1.0.4-3.fc13.x86_64

How reproducible:

Comment 1 Richard W.M. Jones 2010-06-18 22:08:28 UTC

Are these available through libvirt?  If not we'd have to implement
that.

Comment 2 Bug Zapper 2011-06-02 10:19:23 UTC

This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 13.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '13'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

Comment 3 Richard W.M. Jones 2011-06-02 10:48:45 UTC

Bumping to Rawhide.  This is still a useful change
to virt-top, once we get round to implementing the
libvirt layers.

Comment 4 Cole Robinson 2012-06-06 16:51:39 UTC

Since this is a non-fedora specific RFE, moving to the upstream tracker.

Comment 5 Red Hat Bugzilla 2025-10-17 00:09:52 UTC

This product has been discontinued or is no longer tracked in Red Hat Bugzilla.

Comment 6 Alasdair Kergon 2025-10-17 12:52:13 UTC

Reopening because Virtualization Tools has not been discontinued.
