Package: linux-image-6.7-cloud-amd64
Version: 6.6.13-1
Severity: normal
Dear Debian folks,
Trying to quickly start a VM, it’d be great to not use an initrd image,
and also use the Virtio features, for example with the command below:
qemu-system-x86_64 -M q35 -m 32G -enable-kvm -cpu host -smp cpus=32
-device virtio-rng-pci -net nic,model=virtio-net-pci -net
user,hostfwd=tcp::22225-:22 -drive
if=virtio,file=/scratch/local2/debian-linux-build.img -vga none -nographic
Currently, that is not possible, as the driver is only available as
module `virtio_blk.ko` (`CONFIG_VIRTIO_BLK=m`). It’d be great, if it
could be built into the Linux kernel cloud image.
Kind regards,
Paul
