This week the QEMU support patches for KVM on ARM were accepted into upstream. Since the kernel KVM on ARM patchset was accepted for the 3.9 kernel, this means that there is now enough support in purely upstream kernel and QEMU for basic working KVM on ARMv7 cores with the Virtualization Extensions (specifically, Cortex-A15). There […]| translatedcode
For the last couple of years I have been working on a SPICE protocol native proxy called Kerbside. The basic idea is to be able to provide SPICE Virtual Desktop Interface (VDI) consoles to users from cloud platforms such as Shaken Fist, OpenStack, or oVirt. Think Citrix, but for Open Source cloud platforms. SPICE is attractive here because it has some features that other more common VDI protocols like VNC don’t have — good cut and paste support, USB device pass-through, multiple monitor s...| Made by Mikal

If you want to run virtual machines on Linux, chances are you’re going to use libvirt. I make use of it all the time, especially for testing these blog posts in a clean environment. libvirt provides a common interface around various underlying tools for virtual machine management. It not only offers features for guest management but for networking and storage management as well. It’s standard XML schema also makes for a powerful and versatile configuration format. On Linux, libvirt is typ...| JWillikers
