upgrade:

The default QEMU machine type for ARMv7 architecture is now changed
|
|
to ``virt`` (from the older ``vexpress-a15``, which is a particular
|
|
ARM development board). The ``virt`` board is the recommended
|
|
default for ARMv7, which is explicitly designed to be
|
|
used with virtual machines. It is more flexible, supports PCI and
|
|
'virtio' devices, has decent RAM limits, and so forth. For
|
|
pre-existing Nova guests on ARMv7 to acquire the ``virt`` machine
|
|
type: (a) upgrade Nova with this fix; (b) explicitly start and stop
|
|
the guests, then they will pick up the 'virt' machine type.
