Subject: [PATCH v5 0/6] hw/misc/pvpanic: add support for normal shutdowns
Date: Mon, 29 Jan 2024 20:28:08 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240129-pvpanic-shutdown-v5-0-f5a060b87c74@t-8ch.de> (raw)
Shutdown requests are normally hardware dependent.
By extending pvpanic to also handle shutdown requests, guests can
submit such requests with an easily implementable and cross-platform
mechanism.
The background is the usage of minimal Linux kernels with different
architectures for testing purposes.
Poweroff support varies highly per architecture and requires a bunch of
code to be compiled to work.
pvpanic on the other hand is very small and uniform.
Patch 1, 2 and 3 are general cleanups, that seems useful even without this
proposal being implemented.
They should also be ready to be picked up from the series on their own.
A corresponding patch has been submitted for Linux [0].
This is also where the request was voiced to drop move away from a
pvpanic uapi header in Linux.
