Subject: [PATCH 15/15] KVM: ARM: Guest wait-for-interrupts (WFI) support
Date: Sat, 15 Sep 2012 11:36:05 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120915153605.21241.75455.stgit@ubuntu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120915153359.21241.86002.stgit@ubuntu>
From: Christoffer Dall <cdall@cs.columbia.edu>
When the guest executes a WFI instruction the operation is trapped to
KVM, which emulates the instruction in software. There is no correlation
between a guest executing a WFI instruction and actually putting the
hardware into a low-power mode, since a KVM guest is essentially a
process and the WFI instruction can be seen as 'sleep' call from this
process. Therefore, we block the vcpu when the guest excecutes a wfi
instruction and the IRQ or FIQ lines are not raised.
When an interrupt comes in through KVM_IRQ_LINE (see previous patch) we
signal the VCPU thread and unflag the VCPU to no longer wait for
interrupts.
