[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] [For 0.13] Disable virtio-balloon memory stats inte


From: Adam Litke
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] [For 0.13] Disable virtio-balloon memory stats interface
Date: Wed, 8 Sep 2010 09:21:25 -0500

The addition of memory stats reporting to the virtio balloon causes
the 'info balloon' command to become asynchronous.  This is a regression
because in some cases it can hang the user monitor.

To fix this regression, the virtio balloon memory stats feature is being
disabled in qemu-0.13.
