initial version
This page will help to track status of support vanilla kernel in Virtuozzo management tools and status of merging Virtuozzo kernel features in mainline kernel.

== Why? ==

* in general vanilla kernel support by Virtuozzo management tools will help us to make Virtuozzo containers make more popular ({{OVZ|1}})
* allow to use Virtuozzo containers in Linux distributions without installation of custom kernel
* reduce our efforts for maintaining large amount of different patches

== Status ==

=== vzprocps ===

vzprocps is a [https://gitlab.com/procps-ng/procps procps-ng] with our patches. There is no separate source code repository for vzprocps patches but patches can be found in [http://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/releases/7.0/source/SRPMS/v/ RPM package] with sources.

=== rsync ===

We use rsync with custom options implemented via patches. Patches are available in [http://download.openvz.org/virtuozzo/factory/source/SRPMS/r/ RPM package] with sources.

See slides from Linux Plumbers [http://www.slideshare.net/openvz/whats-missing-from-upstream-kernel-containers-kir-kolyshkin What's missing from upstream kernel containers?] with current status of merging Virtuzzo features to upstream.
