Re: [Qemu-stable] [PATCH v2 0/2] memory: Convert skip_dump to ram_device and avoid memcpy

[Thorsten Kohfeldt]

I tested these
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-10/msg05900.html
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-10/msg05901.html
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-10/msg05902.html

together with [Qemu-devel] [PULL 18/19] vfio/pci: Fix 
vfio_rtl8168_quirk_data_read add
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-10/msg03911.html

on top of qemu-stable-2.7.0

successfully on IPFire (Linux) and Windows 10 x64 with the Realtek driver.

I suggest all 3 commits (msg05901, msg05902, and msg03911) should become
serious candidates for qemu-2.7.1.

Regards,

Thorsten
