Subject: [PATCH v4 0/3] KVM/ARM: Fix >256 vcpus
Date: Thu, 3 Oct 2019 17:46:37 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191003154640.22451-1-eric.auger@redhat.com> (raw)
Since 4.18, KVM/ARM exposes a KVM_MAX_VCPUS equal to 512. However it was
reported [1] that a VM with more than 256 vcpus cannot be launched. 5.4
fixes the situation with 2 patches:
- one upgrade of the KVM_IRQ_LINE API [2] supporting a vcpu id encoded
on 12 bits,
- the reduction of KVM IO devices consumed by each GICv3 redistributor [3]
This series uses the new KVM_IRQ_LINE API and also checks the associated
capability (KVM_CAP_ARM_IRQ_LINE_LAYOUT_2) in machvirt.
Without the series, as soon as the -smp arguments exceeds 256, QEMU exits
with "kvm_set_irq: Invalid argument".
Best Regards
Eric
This series can be found at:
https://github.com/eauger/qemu/tree/v4.1.0-256fix-patch-v4
History:
v3 -> v4:
- headers update against v5.4-rc1
- moved to patch as the kernel dependencies are resolved in 5.4
- Added Richard and Drew's R-b
v2 -> v3:
- simplifications in kvm_arm_gic_set_irq
- Implement KVM_CAP_ARM_IRQ_LINE_LAYOUT_2 check in kvm_arch_init
v1 -> v2:
- New layout set for kvm_arm_gic_set_irq and
arm_cpu_kvm_set_irq through kvm_arm_set_irq
- Introduced kvm_arm_irq_line_layout_mismatch()
Eric Auger (3):
