[PATCH 00/31] KVM/MIPS: Implement hardware virtualization via the MIPS-VZ extensions.

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

 



From: David Daney <david.daney@xxxxxxxxxx>

These patches take a somewhat different approach to MIPS
virtualization via the MIPS-VZ extensions than the patches previously
sent by Sanjay Lal.

Several facts about the code:

o Existing exception handlers are modified to hook in to KVM instead
  of intercepting all exceptions via the EBase register, and then
  chaining to real exception handlers.

o Able to boot 64-bit SMP guests that use the FPU (I have booted 4-way
  SMP 64-bit MIPS/Linux).

o Additional overhead on every exception even when *no* vCPU is running.

o Lower interrupt overhead, than the EBase interception method, when
  vCPU *is* running.

o This code is somewhat smaller than the existing trap/emulate
  implementation (about 2100 lines vs. about 5300 lines)

o Currently probably only usable on the OCTEON III CPU model, as some
  MIPS-VZ implementation-defined behaviors were assumed to have the
  OCTEON III behavior.

Note: I think Ralf already has the 17/31 (MIPS: Quit exposing Kconfig
symbols in uapi headers.) queued, but I also include it here.
