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.
|
|
|
|
Bare metal only
|
|
***************
|
|
|
|
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 our `Linux`_ GitHub\* repo.
|
|
|
|
.. _vm-kernels:
|
|
|
|
Also compatible with VMs
|
|
************************
|
|
|
|
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>`. Additionally, this
|
|
kernel includes the VirtualBox\* kernel modules, see our
|
|
:ref:`instructions on using Virtualbox<virtualbox-cl-installer>` for more
|
|
information. The optimization patches are found in our `Linux-LTS`_ GitHub
|
|
repo.
|
|
|
|
VM only
|
|
*******
|
|
|
|
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 on the
|
|
:ref:`supported hardware list<system-requirements>`. Use this kernel when
|
|
running |CL| as the guest OS on top of *qemu/kvm*. Use this kernel with
|
|
**cloud orchestrators** using *qemu/kvm* internally as their **hypervisor**
|
|
. This kernel can be used as a standalone |CL| VM, see our
|
|
:ref:`instructions on using KVM<kvm>` for more information. The
|
|
optimization patches are found in our `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 our :ref:`instructions on using Hyper-V<hyper-v>`
|
|
for more information. The optimization patches are found in our
|
|
`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 our
|
|
`Linux-HyperV-LTS`_ GitHub repo.
