[PATCH v4 0/2] kvm: x86: hyperv: fix userspace interaction flaws

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

 



This patchset contains fixes for two hyperv implementation flaws in KVM
that surfaced when the userspace (QEMU) started to use it more actively.

In both cases more control is delegated from KVM to userspace.

v3 -> v4:
 - fix too early vp_index initialization

v2 -> v3:
 - add documentation
 - add handling of args[0] to KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC2

v1 -> v2:
 - add patch 1
 - add capability in patch 2

Roman Kagan (2):
  kvm: x86: hyperv: add KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC2
  kvm: x86: hyperv: make VP_INDEX managed by userspace
