So, is it going to be included in FreeBSD 10 now? As I can see code freeze for CURRENT is planned on 7 September 2013 (10 days from now). http://www.freebsd.org/releases/10.0R/schedule.html It's not much time. 2013/8/17 Abhishek Gupta (LIS) <abgupta@microsoft.com>: > Hi Pavel, > > Thanks for inquiring about the BSD drivers for Hyper-V. We (Microsoft) ar= e actively working on these drivers and the intent is to get them integrate= d in to the kernel within the next month or so. There are some issues we ar= e trying to address: > > a) Witness panic during boot time due to a specific memory allocation. > b) Bypass usage of disk labels to ensure that devices do not get reordere= d under FreeBSD. > c) Locks up on 32 bit builds. > d) Lack of KVP support for BSD drivers > > We are working hard every day to finish these items. > > Even though an official announcement has not gone out, I would highly enc= ourage you to start testing the drivers. As they are in project branch now = they should be easy to compile.
