It is actively developed and has recently gained support for ARM, for example. Ingo keeps pulling it to the -tip tree so tools/kvm also appears on linux-next through that. Linus doesn't think it's worth pulling and the KVM maintainers are uninterested. So I guess we've deadlocked the Linux kernel development process? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
