31As of Solaris 2.5, the /usr/kvm directory is no longer needed by the
32operating environment.  The mount point continues to be provided for
33backward compatibility although all of the contents have been removed.
34
35In earlier releases, /usr/kvm contained the platform specific implementations
36of programs and libraries.  The interface to these platform specific
37implementations was generally advertized to be in a platform independent
38directory and a symbolic link was used to bind the advertized platform
39independent interface to the platform specific implementation in /usr/kvm.
