[kvm-devel] PIO port width on various archs?

2007-02-25 Thread Avi Kivity
I'm changing the kvm userspace interface to be more friendly to other archs. One issue is the PIO port size. x86 uses 16 bits to hold the port size (64K ports). Is that an issue for other archs? I guess I could change it to __u32, but it's better to know what various architectures actually

Few years ago I did a fair bit of x86 programming, but with the more recent CPUs and all the new instructions, I'd probably be bit out of it. Then again, wouldn't hurt having a look at it... who knows, maybe in a few years I could actually do something ;) The problem. Basically I get the problem

Sure, I'll have a look at the documentation. Need some evening reading anyways ;) Thanks for the suggestion I will try and install using QEMU and then restart under KVM and the modified version of qemu, cheers! / Chris On Sun, 2007-02-25 at 11:39 +0200, Avi Kivity wrote: Chris Stromblad wrote:

Hi, FYI, as of last Thursday, KVM supports live migration. The migration code is based on Anthony Liguori's live migration patch for Qemu; Thanks Anthony. I added the part needed for KVM (based on KVM's dirty pages logging written by Avi). Regards, Uri.

This small patchset plugs a few holes in the kvm dirty page logging implementation. With these fixes (which really want to be in Linux 2.6.21), one can migrate a running virtual machine from one host to another. The virtual machine continues executing while its memory image is transferred,

Enabling dirty page logging is done using KVM_SET_MEMORY_REGION ioctl. If the memory region already exists, we need to remove write accesses, so writes will be caught, and dirty pages will be logged. Signed-off-by: Uri Lublin [EMAIL PROTECTED] Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---
