* Basic clean up and standardization of intro in preparation for translation. - Simplify sentences. - Remove idiomatic phrases. Signed-off-by: Kristal Dale <kristal.dale@intel.com> * Additional minor edits to simplify sentence/word choice for translation. Signed-off-by: Kristal Dale <kristal.dale@intel.com> * Removed section "Kernel Container" from compatible-kernels.rst as Clear Containers are now deprecated and bundle no longer exists.

Compatible kernels

##################
|
|
|
|
The |CL-ATTR| provides the following Linux kernels with a respective bundle.
|
|
This document describes the specific use cases these `bundles`_ serve
|
|
and provides links to their source code.
|
|
|
|
Kernel native
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
The *kernel-native* bundle focuses on the bare metal platforms. It is optimized
|
|
for fast booting and performs best on the Intel® architectures described on the
|
|
:ref:`supported hardware list<system-requirements>`.
|
|
|
|
The optimization patches are found in the `Linux`_ GitHub\* repo.
|
|
|
|
.. _vm-kernels:
|
|
|
|
Kernel LTS
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
The *kernel-lts* bundle focuses on the bare metal platforms but uses the latest
|
|
:abbr:`LTS (Long Term Support)` Linux kernel. It is optimized for fast booting
|
|
and performs best on the Intel® architectures described on the
|
|
:ref:`supported hardware list<system-requirements>`. This kernel also includes
|
|
the VirtualBox\* kernel modules. See the
|
|
:ref:`instructions on using Virtualbox<virtualbox-cl-installer>` for more
|
|
information.
|
|
|
|
The optimization patches are found in the `Linux-LTS`_ GitHub repo.
|
|
|
|
Kernel KVM
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
The *kernel-kvm* bundle focuses on the Linux
|
|
:abbr:`KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine)`. It is optimized for fast booting
|
|
and performs best on virtual machines running on the Intel® architectures
|
|
described in the :ref:`supported hardware list<system-requirements>`.
|
|
Use this kernel when running |CL| as the guest OS on top of *qemu/kvm* or with
|
|
**cloud orchestrators** using *qemu/kvm* internally as
|
|
their **hypervisor**. This kernel can be used as a standalone |CL| VM. See
|
|
the :ref:`instructions on using KVM<kvm>` for more information.
|
|
|
|
The optimization patches are found in the `Linux-KVM`_ GitHub repo.
|
|
|
|
Kernel Hyper-V\*
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
The *kernel-hyperv* bundle focuses on running Linux on Microsoft\*
|
|
Hyper-V. It is optimized for fast booting and performs best on Virtual
|
|
Machines running on the Intel® architectures described on the
|
|
:ref:`supported hardware list<system-requirements>`.
|
|
Use this kernel when running |CL| as the guest OS of **Cloud Instances** in
|
|
projects such as Microsoft `Azure`_\*. This kernel can be used in a
|
|
standalone |CL| VM. See the :ref:`instructions on using Hyper-V<hyper-v>` for
|
|
more information.
|
|
|
|
The optimization patches are found in the `Linux-HyperV`_ GitHub repo.
|
|
|
|
Kernel Hyper-V LTS
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
The *kernel-hyperv-lts* bundle focuses on running Linux on Microsoft
|
|
Hyper-V but uses the latest :abbr:`LTS (Long Term Support)` Linux kernel. It
|
|
is optimized for fast booting and performs best on virtual machines running on
|
|
the Intel® architectures described on the
|
|
:ref:`supported hardware list<system-requirements>`. Use this kernel when
|
|
running |CL| as the guest OS of **Cloud Instances** in projects such as
|
|
Microsoft `Azure`_. This kernel can be used in a standalone |CL| VM. See our
|
|
:ref:`instructions on using Hyper-V<hyper-v>` for more information.
|
|
|
|
The optimization patches are found in the `Linux-HyperV-LTS`_ GitHub repo.
