Comment 2 juzhang 2011-07-06 10:38:06 UTC
#/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm --help | grep -i ksm
-redhat-disable-KSM  disable KSM on guest physical memory

This option is not supported so far,however,for our qe perspective, only option
is included in   /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm --help,we should find related help via
"man qemu-kvm",mark qa ack+ with low priority

Reproduce with kernel 2.6.32-220.el6.x86_64 and qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.215.el6.x86_64

# man qemu-kvm 

no item about redhat-disable-KSM found



Verify with kernel 2.6.32-220.el6.x86_64 and qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.219.el6.x86_64

# man qemu-kvm

In the man page we can find :

-redhat-disable-KSM
           Disable KSM on the virtual RAM.

So,this bug had been fixed.
