490 | What: KVM memory aliases support | ||

511 | What: KVM kernel-allocated memory slots | ||
512 | When: July 2010 | ||
513 | Why: Since 2.6.25, kvm supports user-allocated memory slots, which are | ||
514 | much more flexible than kernel-allocated slots. All current userspace | ||
515 | supports the newer interface and this code can be removed with no | ||
