glibc (or, rather, kernel headers) isn't needed for several last revisions of qemu-kvm, which now includes a definition of the necessary symbol if it's not present. But that's details. > ksm to work and I do not understand why /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/pages_sharing was > always to 0. > It is only today that I found that I have to > echo 1 > /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run > in order to have KSM working (I also adjust sleep_millisecs to 2000) > > I think the info (or a pointer to better documentation) would be welcomed > in /usr/share/doc/qemu-kvm/README.Debian.gz I disagree. Not that adding such a link is bad, but it is not good either. There are many features in qemu which are not documented well - for example, usage of macvtap vs tap device (and what _is_ macvtap anyway). I guess better place for that stuff is qemu (or qemu-kvm) wiki pages. I'll add a link to such a page into the README.Debian file, but mind you, very few people actually read that file ;) Thanks! /mjt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
