Hi,

there is a new parameter in qemu-0.12 required for virtio_balloon support. Is 
there an appropriate XML-entry in libvirt's domain config yet or any plans to 
introduce one? A quick googling for "libvirt balloon" didn't reveal any 
hints.

Adam, how did you test the memstat reporting feature?


kr,
tom
