This series transforms irqfd into an IRQ bypass consumer and introduce the infrastructure shared by Intel posted-interrupts and ARM forwarded IRQ series. The bypass manager gets compiled for x86 and arm/arm64 when KVM is used. A new kvm_irqfd.h header is created to externalize some irqfd declarations going to be used by architecture specific code. A new CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_IRQ_BYPASS option is introduced to enable architecture specific IRQ manager hooks. the series depends on the IRQ bypass manager: - [PATCH v4] virt: IRQ bypass manager (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/8/6/526) can be found at: https://git.linaro.org/people/eric.auger/linux.git/shortlog/refs/heads/v4.2-rc6-irq-forward-v3 Best Regards Eric History: v4 -> v5: - remove kvm_arch static inline stubs - add pr_info on registration failure v3 -> v4: - fix compilation for arm/arm64 - rearrange signoffs/history on some patch files v2 -> v3 (Feng Wu): - rebase on IRQ bypass manager [PATCH v2] virt: IRQ bypass manager: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/16/810 - Correct some minor errors and typo - Add something needed for posted-interrupts v1 -> v2: - isolate the bypass manager and irqfd consumer in this series - take into account Paolo's comments and use container_of strategy and remove additional fields introduced in v1. - create kvm_irqfd.h - add unregistration in irqfd_shutdown v1: originally part of [RFC 00/17] ARM IRQ forward control based on IRQ bypass manager (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/2/268) Eric Auger (4): KVM: arm/arm64: select IRQ_BYPASS_MANAGER KVM: create kvm_irqfd.h KVM: introduce kvm_arch functions for IRQ bypass KVM: eventfd: add irq bypass consumer management Feng Wu (1): KVM: x86: select IRQ_BYPASS_MANAGER arch/arm/kvm/Kconfig | 2 + arch/arm/kvm/Makefile | 1 + arch/arm64/kvm/Kconfig | 2 + arch/arm64/kvm/Makefile | 1 + arch/x86/kvm/Kconfig | 2 + arch/x86/kvm/Makefile | 3 ++ include/linux/kvm_host.h | 10 +++++ include/linux/kvm_irqfd.h | 71 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ virt/kvm/Kconfig | 3 ++ virt/kvm/eventfd.c | 110 ++++++++++++++++------------------------------ 10 files changed, 133 insertions(+), 72 deletions(-) create mode 100644 include/linux/kvm_irqfd.h -- 1.9.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
