Subject: [PATCH 0/3] nvdimm: read-only file support
Date: Tue,  4 Aug 2020 11:12:41 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200804101244.1283503-1-stefanha@redhat.com> (raw)

There is currently no way to back an NVDIMM with a read-only file so it can be
safely shared between untrusted guests.

Introduce an -object memory-backend-file,readonly=on|off option.

Julio Montes sent an earlier patch here:
https://patchew.org/QEMU/20190708211936.8037-1-julio.montes@intel.com/

Eric Ernst requested this feature again for Kata Containers so I gave it a try.

Stefan Hajnoczi (3):
  memory: add readonly support to memory_region_init_ram_from_file()
  hostmem-file: add readonly=on|off option
  nvdimm: honor -object memory-backend-file,readonly=on option
