[Android-virt] [PATCH 00/10] KVM/ARM architected timer support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch series adds support for the architected timer for the
guest. It relies on the VGIC code to inject timer interrupts.

Some of the aspects are quite ugly, like the offloading of the host
interrupt handler to KVM, and the host switch from virtual to physical
timer. If someone has a better idea, I'm all ears.

It is also available as a branch there:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/maz/arm-platforms.git kvm-arm-timer-3.4-rc7

Marc Zyngier (10):
  ARM: arch_timers: enable the use of the virtual timer
  ARM: arch_timers: register a time/cycle counter
  ARM: arch_timers: give the virtual timer its own interrupt handler
  ARM: arch_timers: dynamic switch to physical timer and virtual timer
    offloading
  ARM: KVM: Allow the host to use the physical timer from PL1
  ARM: KVM: VGIC: Implement kvm_vgic_get_current_vcpu()
  ARM: KVM: arch_timers: Add minimal infrastructure
  ARM: KVM: arch_timers: Add guest timer core support
  ARM: KVM: arch_timers: Add timer world switch
  ARM: KVM: arch_timers: Wire the init code and config option
