[RFC 0/1] Introduce vfio-cxl to support CXL type-2 device passthrough

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

 



Compute Express Link (CXL) is an open standard interconnect built upon
industrial PCI layers to enhance the performance and efficiency of data
centers by enabling high-speed, low-latency communication between CPUs
and various types of devices such as accelerators, memory.

Although CXL is built upon the PCI layers, passing a CXL type-2 device can
be different than PCI devices according to CXL specification. Thus,
addtional changes on are required.

vfio-cxl is introduced to support the CXL type-2 device passthrough.
This is the QEMU VFIOStub draft changes to support it.

More details (patches, repos, kernel config) all what you need to test
and hack around, plus a demo video shows the kernel/QEMU command line
