Subject: [PATCH v5 0/9] KVM: selftests: add powerpc support
Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2026 23:58:44 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1790101179.git.ritesh.list@gmail.com> (raw)
Patch v4 -> v5:
==============
- Fixed the issues reported by Anushree while running on kvm on powervm
(nested).
- Fixed memslot_perf_test on powerpc.
PATCH v3 -> PATCH v4:
==================
- Rebased on top of Sean's new page allocator patch series v2 [1]
This allowed to drop and patch-2 since it will now come from Sean's
v2.
- Addressed review comments from Sean - squashed patches 6-10 in patch-1 of
this.
- Dropped patch-5 to print vcpu_id when KVM_CREATE_VCPU ioctl fails.
- Added additional patch-3 to this series to allow dirty_log_test to run on all
big-endian machines.

Testing updates:
================
I have done some fair amount of testing of the selftests both on real HW and
using various combinations on qemu (powernv+LE (default), pseries+cap-nested-hv,
pseries+cap-nested-papr, powernv+BE). There were few powerpc kvm kernel fixes
which were identified as part of this work. I will send those patches separately
as those anyway needs to go in separately.

=======================================================
Hi All,
This series primarly adds KVM selftests support for powerpc (64-bit, BookS,
radix MMU).
This patch series is originally Nick's work. I have mainly only rebased it on
the latest upstream tree. Since the rebase required few changes to all the four
patches (Patch 1-4), I have dropped the earlier Acked-by from Michael Ellerman.
Since the last series was posted three years ago [1], I am resetting the version
to RFC. This rebase was done as part of a larger effort to improve the selftests
infrastructure for Linux on PowerPC tree. Thanks to Harsh and Maddy for their
help on this.
