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 can be found at: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20240920223446.1908673-7-zhiw@xxxxxxxxxx/T/
I have started looking at the software stack and the QEMU trees are quite old. Could you please rebase the branches on the latest ? Also, I think having a single branch per project would be easier. For linux : [v2] cxl: add Type2 device support [RFC] vfio: introduce vfio-cxl to support CXL type-2 [RFC] samples: introduce QEMU CXL accel driver Same for QEMU. Thanks, C.
