Subject: [PATCH v11 02/12] xen/pvh: Define what an PVH guest is.
Date: Tue, 17 Dec 2013 15:51:33 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1387313503-31362-3-git-send-email-konrad.wilk@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1387313503-31362-1-git-send-email-konrad.wilk@oracle.com>
From: Mukesh Rathor <mukesh.rathor@oracle.com>
Which is a PV guest with auto page translation enabled
and with vector callback. It is a cross between PVHVM and PV.
The Xen side defines PVH as (from docs/misc/pvh-readme.txt,
with modifications):
"* the guest uses auto translate:
- p2m is managed by Xen
- pagetables are owned by the guest
- mmu_update hypercall not available
* it uses event callback and not vlapic emulation,
* IDT is native, so set_trap_table hcall is also N/A for a PVH guest.
For a full list of hcalls supported for PVH, see pvh_hypercall64_table
in arch/x86/hvm/hvm.c in xen. From the ABI prespective, it's mostly a
PV guest with auto translate, although it does use hvm_op for setting
callback vector."
We don't have yet a Kconfig entry setup as we do not
have all the parts ready for it - so we piggyback
on the PVHVM config option. This scaffolding will
be removed later.
