KVM for PowerPC only supports embedded cores at the moment. While it makes sense to virtualize on small machines, it's even more fun to do so on big boxes. So I figured we need KVM for PowerPC64 as well. This patchset implements KVM support for Book3s_64 hosts and guest support for Book3s_64 and G3/G4. To really make use of this, you will also need a modified version of qemu that can deal with KVM on desktop cores. I will send out patches for those later, but want to get feedback on the kernel side first. In the meanwhile, use the qemu version from http://www.powerkvm.org/powerkvm.git which already includes all required patches to run G3/G4 and G5 guests. To not spam on everyone on the list, I figured I'd send this as a git pull request this time. If I did anything wrong, please tell me :-).
I will need some acks from ppc people. Obviously for the non-kvm bits, but also for the kvm bits as I am not qualified to review ppc code.
- use MMU Notifiers
What's the plan here?
- use u64* for dirty log
Is this a userspace interface issue? if so it will need to be addressed before merging.
