[PATCH v3 0/5] Introduce new headers for Hyper-V

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

 



To support Linux as root partition[1] on Hyper-V many new definitions
are required.

The plan going forward is to directly import definitions from
Hyper-V code without waiting for them to land in the TLFS document.
This is a quicker and more maintainable way to import definitions,
and is a step toward the eventual goal of exporting the headers
directly from Hyper-V for use in Linux.

This patch series introduces new headers (hvhdk.h, hvgdk.h, etc,
see patch #3) derived directly from Hyper-V code. hyperv-tlfs.h is
replaced with hvhdk.h (which includes the other new headers)
everywhere.

No functional change is expected.

Summary:
Patch 1-2: Minor cleanup patches
Patch 3: Add the new headers (hvhdk.h, etc..) in include/hyperv/
Patch 4: Switch to the new headers
Patch 5: Delete hyperv-tlfs.h files

Changelog:
v3:
- Add patch (#5) to delete the hyperv-tlfs.h files, suggested by
  Michael Kelley and Easwar Hariharan
- Reword commit message on patch #3 to improve clarity, suggested
  by Michael Kelley
- Clarify "Dom0" terminology, suggested by Michael Kelley
v2:
- Rework the series to simply use the new headers everywhere,
  instead of fiddling around to keep hyperv-tlfs.h in some areas,
  suggested by Michael Kelley and Easwar Hariharan
- Fix compilation issues with some configs by adding missing
  definitions and changing some names, thanks to Simon Horman for
  catching those
- Add additional definitions to the new headers due to them now being
  used everywhere
- Don't remove indirect includes in patch #2, only remove those which
  truly aren't used, suggested by Michael Kelley

Footnotes:
[1] Linux as root partition on Hyper-V is sometimes referred to as
    "Dom0", borrowing the terminology from Xen. Although they are
    conceptually similar, note that "Hyper-V Dom0" has nothing to do
    with Xen.

Nuno Das Neves (5):
  hyperv: Move hv_connection_id to hyperv-tlfs.h
  hyperv: Clean up unnecessary #includes
  hyperv: Add new Hyper-V headers in include/hyperv
  hyperv: Switch from hyperv-tlfs.h to hyperv/hvhdk.h
  hyperv: Remove the now unused hyperv-tlfs.h files
