This package provides the source code for the KVM kernel modules.
The kvm package is also required in order to make use of these
modules. Kernel source or headers are required to compile these modules.

Full virtualization on x86 hardware
Using KVM, one can run multiple virtual PC:s, each running unmodified Linux or
Windows images. Each virtual machine has private virtualized hardware: a
network card, disk, graphics adapter, etc.
.
KVM (for Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution for
Linux hosts on x86 hardware with x86 guests. KVM is intended for systems where
the processor has hardware support for virtualization, see below for details.
All combinations of 32-bit and 64-bit host and guest systems are supported,
except 64-bit guests on 32-bit hosts.
.
KVM requires your system to support hardware virtualization, provided by AMD's
SVM capability or Intel's VT. See /usr/share/doc/kvm/README.Debian for more
information.

[ Soren Hansen ]
* 03_bios_no_ssp.patch:

them yourself from kvm-source is now optional.
- qemu is no longer needed for creating disk images, since we have kvm-img
now.
* Move kvm-source from "Recommends:" of kvm to "Suggests:", since the
modules are in the standard kernel images.

running. This fixes the savevm monitor command.

- Add CVE-2007-1320+1321+1322+1366+2893.patch from from qemu 0.9.1-1
to address the following issues:
- Note: CVE-2007-2893 is the same as CVE-2007-1323 referenced in DSA-1284-1.
- Note: CVE-2007-5729 and CVE-2007-5730 are the same as CVE-2007-1321
referenced in DSA-1284-1.
- Cirrus LGD-54XX "bitblt" heap overflow.
- NE2000 "mtu" heap overflow.
- QEMU "net socket" heap overflow.
- QEMU NE2000 "receive" integer signedness error.
- Infinite loop in the emulated SB16 device.
- Unprivileged "aam" instruction does not correctly handle the
undocumented divisor operand.
- Unprivileged "icebp" instruction will halt emulation.
* Include patch which defaults to existing behaviour (probing based on file
contents), so it still requires the mgmt app (e.g. libvirt xml) to
pass a new "format=raw" parameter for raw disk images
- Fixes possible privilege escalation, which could allow guest users
to read arbitrary files on the host by modifying the header to identify
a different format (Closes: #481204) Fixes: CVE-2008-2004

[ Leonard Norrgård ]
* New upstream version. KVM is now based on qemu-0.9.0.
* Suggest etherboot and actually suggest hal (was only mentioning it).
* Update copyright info.
* Add a couple of patches from Debian qemu: 22_net_tuntap_stall.patch,
04_do_not_print_rtc_freq_if_ok.patch, 62_linux_boot_nasm.patch (62_*
currently only to avoid a buildd FTBS problem).
* Reorder the first two paragraphs in the description for kvm so the
general description is first, the more technical second.
* Moved adduser to Pre-Depends, as we rely on it for installation.
* For a detailed changelog, please see:
svn log -v -r 2227:2383 svn://svn.debian.org/svn/collab-maint/ext-maint/kvm/trunk
.
[ Baruch Even ]

NMU.
* Add XS-Vcs-Browser field
.
kvm (13-1) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
.
* New upstream version.
.
kvm (12-1) unstable; urgency=high
.
* New upstream version. Most important upstream changes:
- Attempting to reboot Linux guest no longer reboots host on AMD,
actual guest reboot still not possible.
- The option -no-acpi is no longer required to install Windows
(the option is still recommended as the Windows ACPI HAL will
eat a lot of cpu time).
.
kvm (11-2) unstable; urgency=low

[ Baruch Even ]
* Make the quilt include part conditional so we don't have to have it when
building the kernel module. (Closes: #407447, #407482)
* Do not recommend linux-image-2.6 in kvm-source, and move linux-headers-2.6
from depends to suggests where it belongs. The package can build from
vanilla kernels as well as Debian kernels. (Closes: #407729)
.
[ Leonard Norrgard ]
* Enhance manual page a bit.
.
kvm (11-1) unstable; urgency=high
.
* New upstream version. Closes #406800, #406275, #404075.
* This version fixes many stability issues in earlier versions of KVM.
* Automatically create group kvm on installation of package kvm
* Added udev support to automatically set group kvm on /dev/kvm
* Added reportbug script (/usr/share/bug/kvm) so some info that
might be relevant gets included automatically.
* Tell module-assistant about the kvm-source package, so it shows up
in the module selection menu.
* Add information on building the modules using module-assistant.
* Add /etc/kvm/kvm-ifup script (conffile) to bring up the network for
the VM in a simpler way, see the manual page for kvm for description.
This used to be /etc/qemu-ifup, as installed by the qemu package.
* Depend on iproute, bridge-utils, used by kvm-ifup and the upcoming
/etc/init.d script.
* Remove non-x86 bios images - KVM is only meaningful for x86 guests.
* Keep KVM bios files in /usr/share/kvm, rather than sharing them with
other packages as the KVM bios is different (also avoids unexpected
bios updates).
* Don't depend on qemu, as we now keep our own bios.
* Recommend kvm-source, qemu (mostly for qemu-img), vde2 and linux-image-2.6.
* Suggest sudo and debootstrap.
* For kvm-source, depend on linux-headers-2.6 | linux-source-2.6,
recommend linux-image-2.6 and suggest module-assistant and
kernel-package.
* Use quilt to handle patches.
* More detailed package description for kvm, added Homepage:.
