Hey all,
In the current MSHV accelerator code passing CPU features via the -cpu
flag doesn't work as intended yet. When using the MSHV hypervisor we
either silently discard the specified model/features and leave it up
to the hypervisor to provide a sensible set of features or if the user
selects -cpu host, the hypervisor might refuse to create a partition.
This changeset introduces a more comprehensive support for passing
desired guest cpu features to the hypervisor. It's also a prerequisite
for Live Migration support.
Changes since v2:
- move disabling of la57 to arch specific code
- assert MSHV_NUM_CPU_FEATURES_BANKS == 2
- dropped QEMU_PACKED changes to hv headers (address in individal patch)
Changes since v1:
- query hypervisor for supported processor features instead of the host OS
- disable la57 (5 level page tables)
best,
magnus
