[QEMU PATCH v4 10/10] target/i386: kvm: Add nested migration blocker only when kernel lacks required capabilities

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

 



Previous commits have added support for migration of nested virtualization
workloads. This was done by utilising two new KVM capabilities:
KVM_CAP_NESTED_STATE and KVM_CAP_EXCEPTION_PAYLOAD. Both which are
required in order to correctly migrate such workloads.

Therefore, change code to add a migration blocker for vCPUs exposed with
Intel VMX or AMD SVM in case one of these kernel capabilities is
missing.
