This wires up the initial, basic version of virito-mem for s390x. General information about virtio-mem can be found at [1] and in QEMU commit [2]. Patch #5 contains a short example for s390x.
virtio-mem for x86-64 Linux is part of v5.8-rc1. A branch with a s390x prototype can be found at: g...@github.com:davidhildenbrand/linux.git virtio-mem-s390x Note that the kernel should either be compiled via CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE, or "memhp_default_state=online" should be passed on the kernel cmdline. This series can be found at: g...@github.com:davidhildenbrand/qemu.git virtio-mem-s390x-rfcv2 Related to s390x, we'll have to tackle migration of storage keys and storage attributes (especially, skipping unplugged parts). Not sure if I am missing something else (any ideas?). For virtio-mem in general, there are a couple of TODOs, e.g., documented in [1] and [2], both in QEMU and Linux. However, the basics are around. I only tested this with fairly small amount of RAM in a z/VM environemnt and under TCG ...
