Subject: [RESEND PATCH v5 1/6] powerpc: Document APIv2 KVM hcall spec for Hostwide counters
Date: Wed, 16 Apr 2025 21:57:31 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250416162740.93143-2-vaibhav@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250416162740.93143-1-vaibhav@linux.ibm.com>
Update kvm-nested APIv2 documentation to include five new
Guest-State-Elements to fetch the hostwide counters. These counters are
per L1-Lpar and indicate the amount of Heap/Page-table memory allocated,
available and Page-table memory reclaimed for all L2-Guests active
instances
