*	Add IA64-specific tests for virtualization (RHBZ#707508).	Richard W.M. Jones	2011-05-26	1	-0/+9
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Xen IA64 HVM does not provide a simple way to detect the hypervisor. If we are lucky and PV-on-HVM drivers are installed and loaded, then there will be a /sys/bus/xen directory. Otherwise we add a timing attack to see if we can detect generic virtualization. Since this is a big hack, it is only enabled on IA64 and only used when all other methods of detection have failed. This commit also adds `uname -p` to all tests (enabling arch detection so we only run the above tests on IA64).
*	Add a regression test for IBM PowerVM Lx86 emulator (thanks Yufang Zhang).	Richard W.M. Jones	2011-04-21	1	-1/+2

*	Confirm Microsoft Hyper-V, and add a regression test.	Richard W.M. Jones	2011-01-26	1	-1/+1
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Data collected from a RHEL 5.6 guest running on Hyper-V. Also this modifies the VirtualPC test slightly to distinguish it from Hyper-V. We require more data from a real VirtualPC guest to properly refine this test.
*	Add Parallels Virtual Platform (thanks Justin Clift).	Richard W.M. Jones	2011-01-24	1	-0/+7

*	Add additional facts about IBM SystemZ mainframes (thanks Dan Horák).	Richard W.M. Jones	2011-01-20	1	-8/+26
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Add /proc/sysinfo from a real z/VM guest. This file can in theory be used to detect the following three arrangements: (1) Linux running in z/VM on an LPAR. (2) Linux running directly on an LPAR. (3) Linux running directly on baremetal (very unlikely!) Only arrangement (1) has been tested.

\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Based on a description on MSDN: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sqlosteam/archive/2010/10/30/is-this-real-the-metaphysics-of-hardware-virtualization.aspx Not tested. Hyper-V also supports more detail through the CPUID instruction, which we don't yet display.
