[PATCH 1/6] [DOC] powerpc: Document APIv2 KVM hcall spec for Hostwide counters

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

 



Update kvm-nested APIv2 documentation to include five new
Guest-State-Elements to fetch the hostwide counters. These counters are
per L1-Lpar and indicate the amount of Heap/Page-table memory allocated,
available and Page-table memory reclaimed for all L2-Guests active
instances
