        (closes: #588739)
      * revert-all-bdrv_write_sync-changes.diff - this patch reverts the changes
        which went into 0.12.5 upstream and make all metadata writes (for qcow&Co)
        syncronous.  Yes it's more correct, but the resulting write speed is
        insanely slow and makes all image formats except raw unusable.

         avoid_creating_too_large_iovecs_in_multiwrite_merge.patch
         net:-remove-broken-net_set_boot_mask-boot-device-validation.diff
         block:-free-iovec-arrays-allocated-by-multiwrite_merge.diff
         bail-out-when-VCPU_CREATE-fails.diff
      * add madv_mergeable-for-old-kernheaders-hack.diff, mostly
        to help bpo builds (it is to enable KMS even when compiled
        against old kernel headers, when running on recent-enough
        kernel)
      * fix kvm transitional package to have Priority: extra
      * also fix kvm transitional package to properly run with reportbug,
        and simplify the bug-script and use dh_bugfiles to install them.
      * adedd isa-refine-irq-reservations.patch from Gerd Hoffmann
        (closes: #574051)
      * added be_more_specific_in_-mem-path_error_messages.diff trivial 
        patch to be more specific when throwing errors. (closes: #574073)
      * bump debhelper build-depend version to 7.2.3 due to dh_bugfiles.
      * net:-remove-broken-net_set_boot_mask-boot-device-validation.diff
        (to let it to boot from network using new -netdev syntax, cherry-
        picked from stable) (closes: #575628)
      * block:-free-iovec-arrays-allocated-by-multiwrite_merge.diff
        to fix a memory leak in virtio-blk implementation
      * rehash 04_use_etc_kvm_kvm-ifup.patch - apparently the #defines
        are now in two places, remove one of them and patch another
      * bail-out-when-VCPU_CREATE-fails.diff - new patch to make kvm to behave
        a bit nicely if vcpu_create fails: before it were just segfaulting.
        (closes: #558029)
      * give-useful-error-messages-when-tap-open-fails.diff: when manipulation
        of /dev/net/tun fails, give some more useful error messages.
        (closes: #578154)
      * document -incoming option (document--incoming-option.diff).

  • qemu-kvm (0.12.3+dfsg-4) unstable; urgency=low
    
    
      [ Michael Tokarev ]
      * added patch from upstream, ff5414990645653bf43bf64adfc1ca77ffb9edcb,
        revert-sdlaudio:-make-it-suck-less.diff (closes: #572943)
        Note that this is only relevant to sdl audio (QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=sdl)
      * don't report system dmi information in the bugreports anymore, it
        serves almost no useful purpose these days, much less than previously.
        VMX/SVM is either enabled or not, and if it is not enabled, kvm module
        will warn user about this fact in dmesg during load.
        (closes: #572930, #572924)
      * switch back to vgabios as shipped in upstream tarball in kvm/vgabios.
        I overlooked it, thinking it went away together with seabios as
        both roms/seabios and roms/vgabios are empty in upstream, but vgabios
        has never been removed.  So we're back at using it.
        Big thanks to Bjørn Mork for the hard work he did finding bugs in the
        version we shipped in 0.12.3+dfsg-2, which is wrong and the work
        should have not been required.  But it helped finding all the pieces
        finally. (closes: #572991)
      * build-depend on linux-libc-dev >= 2.6.32, to enable KSM (Kernel 
        Samepage Merge) and to ensure we'll not have spurious preadv()
        problems
      * build-depend on libaio-dev to compile in aio support
        (which does not do any harm if not explicitly enabled)
      * fix cleanups of old conffiles in preinst. (closes: #573280)
      * include 573439-fail-to-set-hdd-serial-number.diff - a fix by
        Kouichi ONO broken hdd serial number support (closes: #573439)

      [ Michael Tokarev ]
      * clean up kvm/userspace in `clean' target or else the package
        does not build twice in a row (closes: #527371).
        Also add more workarounds to the clean target, namely,
        clean up kvm/user/test/lib from .*.d files and remove
        generated qemu-monitor.texi
      * fix /etc/kvm/kvm-ifup script (missing {} in awk), thanks to
        Andrea Zagli for the fix (closes: #560436)
      * check in /etc/kvm/kvm-ifup that we actually found default route
        interface and that it's actually a bridge
      * handle etherboot-5.4.4 which moved roms from /usr/share/etherboot
        to /usr/lib/etherboot and actually provided virtio boot rom.  Thanks
        to John Morrissey for the fix and patch. (closes: #522179).
