Package: linux-image-6.7-cloud-amd64
Version: 6.6.13-1
Severity: normal


Dear Debian folks,


Trying to quickly start a VM, it’d be great to not use an initrd image, 
and also use the Virtio features, for example with the command below:

     qemu-system-x86_64 -M q35 -m 32G -enable-kvm -cpu host -smp cpus=32 
-device virtio-rng-pci -net nic,model=virtio-net-pci -net 
user,hostfwd=tcp::22225-:22 -drive 
if=virtio,file=/scratch/local2/debian-linux-build.img -vga none -nographic

Currently, that is not possible, as the driver is only available as 
module `virtio_blk.ko` (`CONFIG_VIRTIO_BLK=m`). It’d be great, if it 
could be built into the Linux kernel cloud image.


Kind regards,

Paul
