What are the real technical difference between qemu-kvm and qemu-kvm-ev packages? What are the advantages to use qemu-kvm-ev (if exists someone)?
Or qemu-kvm-ev makes sense when is used with ovirt only??
Thanks.

qemu-kvm and qemu-kvm-ev are usually built from the same src.rpm. Some newer or advanced virtualization features have been implemented in qemu-kvm-ev which are not able to be backported to qemu-kvm for compatibility reasons. Also, recently qemu-kvm-ev has a newer qemu-kvm version than the one provided by qemu-kvm being qemu-kvm-ev rebuilt from Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization.
Sandro,
Could you please enumerate the actual technical differences between stock qemu-kvm and qemu-kvm-ev?
For example, what could one do with qemu-kvm-ev that cannot with qemu-kvm?

Adding people that may give you a better answer than mine.
Any news about this??
I’ve talked with Paolo Bonzini, KVM maintainer, and eh just confirmed what Nux already highlighted:
