Fast emulation of processor I/O for IN was disabled on x86 (both VMX
and SVM) some years ago due to a buggy implementation.  The addition
of kvm_fast_pio_in(), used by SVM, re-introduced (functional!) fast
emulation of IN.  Piggyback SVM's work and use kvm_fast_pio_in() on
VMX instead of performing full emulation of IN.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
