[PATCH v13 0/8] pv event interface between host and guest

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

 



This series implements a new interface, kvm pv event, to notify host when
some events happen in guest. Right now there is one supported event: guest
panic.

Also, the cpu runstate is preserved during save/load vm and migration. Thus,
if vm is panicked during migration, we can still know it by quring the status
of vm in destination host when migration completes.

v12: http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2013-01/msg04120.html

changes from v12:
  - no DO_UPCASE
  - the interface is only for x86 now
  - request 4 bytes io range(hw/kvm_pv_event.c)
  - rebase to the latest tree

Hu Tao (7):
  save/load cpu runstate
  update kernel headers
  add a new runstate: RUN_STATE_GUEST_PANICKED
  add a new qevent: QEVENT_GUEST_PANICKED
  introduce a new qom device to deal with panicked event
  allower the user to disable pv event support
  pv event: add document to describe the usage
