[PATCH] KVM: x86: Add host physical address width capability

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

 



Let userspace inquire the maximum physical address width
of the host processors; this can be used to identify maximum
memory that can be assigned to the guest.
