Tangential, but your phrasing prompted me to ask: how does the "start in PSCI power-off" boot protocol work for system reset? Since the kernel doesn't currently provide a "reset this v CPU" ioctl userspace has to do reset manually[*]; how do we say "take this vCPU which has started up and run once, and put it back into PSCI power-off" ? [*] this is pretty tedious, since it involves reading every CPU register on the vCPU before first run in order to feed the kernel back a bunch of info it already knows about the reset state of a vCPU. thanks -- PMM -- 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
