http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyper-V#Linux_support έγραψε:In July 2009, Microsoft submitted Hyper-V drivers to the kernel, which improve the performance of virtual Linux guest systems in a Windows hosted environment. Microsoft was forced to submit the code when it was discovered that Microsoft had incorporated a Hyper-V network driver with GPL-licensed components statically linked to closed-source binaries. Hyper-V provides basic virtualization support for Linux guests out of the box. Paravirtualization support is, however, available by installing the Linux Integration Components or Satori InputVSC drivers. On July 20, 2009, Microsoft submitted these drivers for inclusion in the Linux kernel under the terms of the GPL, so that kernels from 2.6.32 may include inbuilt Hyper-V paravirtualization support.
Αυτό έγινε αρχικά για νομικούς λόγους και σίγουρα όχι για το "καλό των πελατών", όπως χαρακτηριστικά αναφέρει το link της αρχικής δημοσίευσης.
