In the case (GICv2 on GICv3 migration), I did the test on my board as follow: vm boot => migrate to destination => shutdown at destination => start at destination => migrate back to source ... go round and begin again; I tested many times, but unlucky, there maybe failed by accident when shutdown the vm at destination. (GICv3 on GICv3 migration, 1000+ times, That's OK). while failed, we can watch the interrupts in the vm, some vcpus of the vm can not receive the virt timer interrupt. And, these vcpus will 100% with top tool at host. vgic_state debug file at destination shows(a active virt timer interrupt) that: VCPU 0 TYP ID TGT_ID PLAEHC HWID TARGET SRC PRI VCPU_ID --------------------------------------------------------------- .................... PPI 25 0 000001 0 1 0 160 -1 PPI 26 0 000001 0 1 0 160 -1 PPI 27 0 011111 27 1 0 160 0 I added log to print ICH* registers for VCPU0 at destination: **HCR:0x1, VMCR:0xf0ec0001,SRE:0x0, ELRSR:0xe** -----AP0R:0: 0x0------ -----AP0R:1: 0x0------ -----AP0R:2: 0x0------ -----AP0R:3: 0x0------ -----AP1R:0: 0x0------ -----AP1R:1: 0x0------ -----AP1R:2: 0x0------ -----AP1R:3: 0x0------ -----LR:0: 0xa0a0001b0000001b------ -----LR:1: 0x0------ -----LR:2: 0x0------ -----LR:3: 0x0------ and the ICH_AP1R0 value is 0x10000 at source. At present, QEMU have supproted GICC_APRn put/set interface for emulated GICv2, and kvm does not support the uaccess interface. This patchset try to support this. BTW: patch 1 is untested cause I don't have the GICv2 hardware board on hand, sorry. wanghaibin (4): kvm: arm/arm64: vgic-v2: Add GICH_APR accessors for GICv2 kvm: arm/arm64: vgic-v3: add ICH_AP[01]Rn accessors for GICv3 kvm: arm/arm64: vgic: Implement the vGICv2 GICC_APRn uaccess interface. kvm: arm/arm64: vgic: clean up vGICv3 ICC_APRn sysreg uaccess arch/arm64/kvm/vgic-sys-reg-v3.c | 25 +++++-------------------- virt/kvm/arm/vgic/vgic-mmio-v2.c | 22 ++++++++++++++++++++-- virt/kvm/arm/vgic/vgic-mmio.c | 28 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ virt/kvm/arm/vgic/vgic-v2.c | 21 +++++++++++++++++++++ virt/kvm/arm/vgic/vgic-v3.c | 20 ++++++++++++++++++++ virt/kvm/arm/vgic/vgic.h | 7 +++++++ 6 files changed, 101 insertions(+), 22 deletions(-) -- 1.8.3.1 _______________________________________________ kvmarm mailing list kvmarm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/kvmarm
