[PATCH v2 0/3] KVM noncoherent DMA registration and VFIO pseudodevice

From: Alex Williamson
Date: Wed Oct 30 2013 - 13:03:52 EST


v2:
- Drop KVM device changes
- Add kfree(dev) in destroy function
- Add atomic_set(,0) in kvm_arch init

As described in v1 and discussion, this adds a VFIO pseudo device to
KVM through which userspace can register VFIO groups. The initial use
of this interface is to enable emulation of coherency instructions on
x86 when a VFIO group is attached. Future patches will allow KVM to
query the coherency state of the IOMMU domain used by the group to
avoid unnecessarily enabling this emulation. Thanks,

Alex
