[PATCH V3 0/8] KVM: PPC: Implement passthrough of emulated devices for nested guests

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

 



This patch series allows for emulated devices to be passed through to nested
guests, irrespective of at which level the device is being emulated.

Note that the emulated device must be using dma, not virtio.

For example, passing through an emulated e1000:

1. Emulate the device at L(n) for L(n+1)

qemu-system-ppc64 -netdev type=user,id=net0 -device e1000,netdev=net0

2. Assign the VFIO-PCI driver at L(n+1)

echo vfio-pci > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:00.0/driver_override
echo 0000:00:00.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/e1000/unbind
echo 0000:00:00.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/vfio-pci/bind
chmod 666 /dev/vfio/0

3. Pass the device through from L(n+1) to L(n+2)

qemu-system-ppc64 -device vfio-pci,host=0000:00:00.0

4. L(n+2) can now access the device which will be emulated at L(n)

V2 -> V3:
1/8: None
2/8: None
3/8: None
4/8: None
5/8: None
6/8: None
7/8: Use guest physical address for the args in H_COPY_TOFROM_GUEST to
     match the comment.
8/8: None
