Subject[PATCH v1 1/1] KVM: trigger uevents when starting or stopping a VM
Date
This patch adds a few lines to the KVM common code to fire a
KOBJ_CHANGE uevent whenever a KVM VM is created or destroyed. The event
carries two environment variables:
KVM_VM_CREATED which indicates how many times a new VM has been created,
KVM_VM_COUNT which indicates how many VMs are currently active.

Specific udev rules can be then set up in userspace to deal with the
creation or destruction of VMs as needed.
