[PATCH v8 0/8] update linux headers to v6.10-rc1 and shutdown support for pvpanic

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

 



Shutdown requests are normally hardware dependent.
By extending pvpanic to also handle shutdown requests, guests can
submit such requests with an easily implementable and cross-platform
mechanism.

The background is the usage of minimal Linux kernels with different
architectures for testing purposes.
Poweroff support varies highly per architecture and requires a bunch of
code to be compiled to work.
pvpanic on the other hand is very small and uniform.

Patch 1 is a fix for scripts/update-linux-headers.sh
Patch 2 updates the bundled linux headers to Linux v6.10-rc1.

Patch 3 and 4 are general cleanups, which seem useful even without this
proposal being implemented.
They should also be ready to be picked up from the series on their own.

The remaining patches implement the new functionality and update the
docs.

The matching driver for Linux is part of Linux v6.10-rc1.
