Another week another RFC. KVM patches are still in flight, so RFC again. Changes since RFCv2: - Rebase. - Split "i386: drop FEAT_HYPERV feature leaves" into several patches and re-shuffle patches to minimize the code churn and make it easier to review. [Eduardo] - Added "i386: provide simple 'hyperv=on' option to x86 machine types" on top.
This pairs with https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20200929150944.1235688-1-vkuzn...@redhat.com/T/#t Upper layer tools like libvirt want to figure out which Hyper-V features are supported by the underlying stack (QEMU/KVM) but currently they are unable to do so. We have a nice 'hv_passthrough' CPU flag supported by QEMU but it has no effect on e.g. QMP's query-cpu-model-expansion type=full model={"name":"host","props":{"hv-passthrough":true}} command as we parse Hyper-V features after creating KVM vCPUs and not at feature expansion time. To support the use-case we first need to make KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_HV_CPUID ioctl a system-wide ioctl as the existing vCPU version can't be used that early. This is what KVM part does. With that done, we can make early Hyper-V feature expansion (this series). In addition, add a simple 'hyperv=on' option to x86 machine types which enables (and requires from KVM) all currently supported Hyper-V enlightenments. Unlike 'hv_passthrough' mode, this is going to be migratable.
