It certainly is good for kernel developers and end-users. However, it would be a foolish distributor or ISV who tests with one hypervisor and decides that covers all hypervisors which implement the same interface. So I'm not sure there's any advantage w.r.t. support and certification costs. -- Hollis Blanchard IBM Linux Technology Center - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
