| |
Hi,
the two patchsets posted as reply to this email implement KVM device passthrough support for AMD IOMMU hardware. The changes to the previous posts are descibed below
The first patchset is version 4 of the generic iommu api patchset which generalizes the VT-d functions exported to KVM into a common api where the AMD IOMMU code can plug into. In this version the patchset was rebased to the latest post of Han Weidong's patches.
The second patchset finally implements the KVM device passthrough support in the AMD IOMMU code. Together with KVM-79 I successfully passed an 10GBit network card into an KVM guest. In this version the patchset was changed to remove any device before a protection domain is freed instead of printing a BUG. Also the patchset was rebased to the updated IOMMU-API patches.
These two patchsets apply in order in top of the latest post of Han Weidong's Multiple device assignement support patches. Anybody who wants to try this out can pull the whole stuff from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/linux-2.6-iommu.git kvm-amd-iommu
Please give these patches a good review.
Thanks,
Joerg
