Hi to all, correct me if I am wrong but isn't it the following the logical execution chain of a generic system call performed in a Kvm guest? Guest userspace application -> Guest kernel -> Host kernel (kvm) -> Host userspace (Quemu) -> Host kernel -> -> Host userspace (Quemu) -> Guest kernel -> Guest userspace application
No. The actual path is guest userspace -> guest kernel -> guest userspace The guest kernel might access emulated hardware, but usually it does not.
Is there any detailed documentation on how this happens inside qemu-kvm?
No. -- Do not meddle in the internals of kernels, for they are subtle and quick to panic. -- 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
