Post by: xeno74 on August 04, 2014, 11:57:40 AM

Hi All,

I have compiled the kernel 3.15.8 with KVM-PR support.

Download: vmlinux-3.15.8-KVM-PR-FTRACE-AmigaOneX1000.tar.bz2 (http://www.xenosoft.de/vmlinux-3.15.8-KVM-PR-FTRACE-AmigaOneX1000.tar.bz2)

The kernel 3.15.10 is available. This is the last kernel of the 3.15 series (EOL).

New:

• Removed CPU frequency scaling support

Other changes:

ChangeLog-3.15.10 (https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/ChangeLog-3.15.10)
ChangeLog-3.15.9 (https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/ChangeLog-3.15.9)

It also includes:

• KVM_BOOK3S_64_PR

Support running guest kernels in virtual machines on processors
without using hypervisor mode in the host, by running the
guest in user mode (problem state) and emulating all
privileged instructions and registers.

This is not as fast as using hypervisor mode, but works on
machines where hypervisor mode is not available or not usable,
and can emulate processors that are different from the host
processor, including emulating 32-bit processors on a 64-bit
host.

• 3dfx Voodoo graphics card support
• Network support for AROS hosted
• Support for 4 serial ports
• Bluetooth USB dongle support
• Kernel tracing with ftrace
