* KVM: Introduce direct MSI message injection for in-kernel irqchipsJan Kiszka2012-04-241-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, MSI messages can only be injected to in-kernel irqchips by defining a corresponding IRQ route for each message. This is not only unhandy if the MSI messages are generated "on the fly" by user space, IRQ routes are a limited resource that user space has to manage carefully. By providing a direct injection path, we can both avoid using up limited resources and simplify the necessary steps for user land.

* KVM: Halt vcpu if page it tries to access is swapped outGleb Natapov2011-01-121-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a guest accesses swapped out memory do not swap it in from vcpu thread context. Schedule work to do swapping and put vcpu into halted state instead. Interrupts will still be delivered to the guest and if interrupt will cause reschedule guest will continue to run another task.

* KVM: Add KVM_MMIO kconfig itemAvi Kivity2010-03-011-0/+3
| | | | | | s390 doesn't have mmio, this will simplify ifdefing it out. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
* KVM: Break dependency between vcpu index in vcpus array and vcpu_id.Gleb Natapov2009-09-101-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | Archs are free to use vcpu_id as they see fit. For x86 it is used as vcpu's apic id. New ioctl is added to configure boot vcpu id that was assumed to be 0 till now. Signed-off-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
* KVM: irqfdGregory Haskins2009-09-101-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | KVM provides a complete virtual system environment for guests, including support for injecting interrupts modeled after the real exception/interrupt facilities present on the native platform (such as the IDT on x86). Virtual interrupts can come from a variety of sources (emulated devices, pass-through devices, etc) but all must be injected to the guest via the KVM infrastructure. This patch adds a new mechanism to inject a specific interrupt to a guest using a decoupled eventfd mechnanism: Any legal signal on the irqfd (using eventfd semantics from either userspace or kernel) will translate into an injected interrupt in the guest at the next available interrupt window.
