Subject: [PATCH 15/20] KVM: arm64: Add pkvm_hyp_req infrastructure
Date: Mon, 3 Aug 2026 11:08:59 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260803100904.3563942-16-vdonnefort@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260803100904.3563942-1-vdonnefort@google.com>
The pKVM hypervisor depends on the host for a lot of operations like
memory allocation. Introduce a struct pkvm_hyp_req to enable the pKVM
hypervisor to request resources from the host.
Additionally, introduce a trace event to track the handling of these
requests.
