[RFC PATCH v3 0/5] x86/kvm: Virtual suspend time injection support

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

 



Hi,

This patch series adds virtual suspend time injection support to KVM.
It is an updated version of the following series:
v2:
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20210806100710.2425336-1-hikalium@xxxxxxxxxxxx/
v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20210426090644.2218834-1-hikalium@xxxxxxxxxxxx/

Please take a look again.

To kvm/arm64 folks:
I'm going to implement this mechanism to ARM64 as well but not
sure which function should be used to make an IRQ (like kvm_apic_set_irq
in x86) and if it is okay to use kvm_gfn_to_hva_cache /
kvm_write_guest_cached for sharing the suspend duration.
Please let me know if there is other suitable way or any suggestions.

Thanks,

Hikaru Nishida


Changes in v3:
- Used PM notifier instead of modifying timekeeping_resume()
  - This avoids holding kvm_lock under interrupt disabled context.
- Used KVM_REQ_* to make a request for vcpus.
- Reused HYPERVISOR_CALLBACK_VECTOR IRQ instead of adding a new one.
- Extracted arch-independent parts.
- Fixed other reviewed points.

Hikaru Nishida (5):
  timekeeping: Expose tk->offs_boot via ktime_get_offs_boot_ns
  kvm/x86: Include asm/pvclock.h in asm/kvmclock.h
  kvm/x86: virtual suspend time injection: Add common definitions
  kvm/x86: virtual suspend time injection: Implement host side
  kvm/x86: virtual suspend time injection: Implement guest side
