We see this as a good starting point to build on, we need baseline numbers for performance, latency, interrupt throughput on real hardware ASAP to build competency for NFV, which has demanding Dev. Passthrough requirements. Over time we plan contributing to SMMU and VFIO as well (we're looking into this now). FYI NFV is an initiative wireless/fixed network operators are working towards - to virtualize Core, likely Radia Access and even Home Network equipment, this is a epic undertaking (i.e. Network Function Virtualization). So far VMware has taken the lead (mostly x86). > > On the embedded PPC side we've been discussing vfio and how it fits into a device tree, non-PCI world for a while. If you like, we can dive into more detail on that, either via email or via phone. I'll email you offline, I'd like to know more what you've done on this and see where we can align/leverage the effort. - Mario > > > Alex > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
