[Qemu-devel] [patch 0/2] support RT_PRIO_HC hypercall

[Qemu-devel] [patch 0/2] support RT_PRIO_HC hypercall

[Marcelo Tosatti]

Add the following CPU options:

allow-rt-prio-hc: allow guest to execute hypercall to change vcpu
thread priority.

rt-prio: SCHED_FIFO priority to be used when that hypercall is invoked.

[Qemu-devel] [patch 2/2] qemu: kvm: support RT_PRIO_HC hypercall

[Marcelo Tosatti]

[-- Attachment #1: qemu-toggle-kvmrt-prio --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3062 bytes --]

Add the following CPU options:

allow-rt-prio-hc: allow guest to execute hypercall to change vcpu 
thread priority.

rt-prio: SCHED_FIFO priority to be used when that hypercall is invoked.

See kernel patchset for details about this hypercall.
