Subject: [PATCH v6 0/5] KVM: selftests: add powerpc support
Date: Mon,  5 Oct 2026 09:17:23 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1791014923.git.ritesh.list@gmail.com> (raw)

Patch v5 -> v6:
================
(Suggestions from Sean):
1. Dropped kvm_create_max_vcpu, hardware_disable_test and their respective
   plumbing.
2. Bundled the enablement and the fixes for few of the tests together to avoid
   the ordering issues.


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.

<pasted snippet of cover letter from previous versions>
=======================================================

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.
