![]() Introduces hot plug/unplug support for the vfio-ap device. To hot plug a vfio-ap device using the QEMU device_add command: (qemu) device_add vfio-ap,sysfsdev=$path-to-mdev Where $path-to-mdev is the absolute path to the mediated matrix device to which AP resources to be used by the guest have been assigned. A vfio-ap device can be hot plugged only if: 1. A vfio-ap device has not been attached to the virtual machine's ap-bus via the QEMU command line or a prior hot plug action. 2. The guest was started with the CPU model feature for AP enabled (e.g., -cpu host,ap=on) To hot unplug a vfio-ap device using the QEMU device_del command: (qemu) device_del vfio-ap,sysfsdev=$path-to-mdev Where $path-to-mdev is the absolute path to the mediated matrix device specified when the vfio-ap device was attached to the virtual machine's ap-bus. A vfio-ap device can be hot unplugged only if: 1. A vfio-ap device has been attached to the virtual machine's ap-bus via the QEMU command line or a prior hot plug action. 2. The guest was started with the CPU model feature for AP enabled (e.g., -cpu host,ap=on) Please note that a hot plug handler is not necessary for the vfio-ap device because the AP matrix configuration for the guest is performed by the kernel device driver when the vfio-ap device is realized. The vfio-ap device represents a VFIO mediated device created in the host sysfs for use by a guest. The mdev device is configured with an AP matrix (i.e., adapters and domains) via its sysfs attribute interfaces prior to starting the guest or plugging a vfio-ap device in. When the device is realized, a file descriptor is opened on the mdev device which results in a callback to the vfio_ap kernel device driver. The device driver then configures the AP matrix in the guest's SIE state description from the AP matrix assigned via the mdev device's sysfs interfaces. The AP devices will be created for the guest when the AP bus running on the guest subsequently performs its periodic scan for AP devices. The qdev_simple_device_unplug_cb() callback function is used for the same reaons; namely, the vfio_ap kernel device driver will perform the AP resource de-configuration for the guest when the vfio-ap device is unplugged. When the vfio-ap device is unrealized, the mdev device file descriptor is closed which results in a callback to the vfio_ap kernel device driver. The device driver then clears the AP matrix configuration in the guest's SIE state description and resets all of the affected queues. The AP devices created for the guest will be removed when the AP bus running on the guest subsequently performs its periodic scan and finds there are no longer any AP resources assigned to the guest.

README
QEMU README =========== QEMU is a generic and open source machine & userspace emulator and virtualizer. QEMU is capable of emulating a complete machine in software without any need for hardware virtualization support. By using dynamic translation, it achieves very good performance. QEMU can also integrate with the Xen and KVM hypervisors to provide emulated hardware while allowing the hypervisor to manage the CPU. With hypervisor support, QEMU can achieve near native performance for CPUs. When QEMU emulates CPUs directly it is capable of running operating systems made for one machine (e.g. an ARMv7 board) on a different machine (e.g. an x86_64 PC board). QEMU is also capable of providing userspace API virtualization for Linux and BSD kernel interfaces. This allows binaries compiled against one architecture ABI (e.g. the Linux PPC64 ABI) to be run on a host using a different architecture ABI (e.g. the Linux x86_64 ABI). This does not involve any hardware emulation, simply CPU and syscall emulation. QEMU aims to fit into a variety of use cases. It can be invoked directly by users wishing to have full control over its behaviour and settings. It also aims to facilitate integration into higher level management layers, by providing a stable command line interface and monitor API. It is commonly invoked indirectly via the libvirt library when using open source applications such as oVirt, OpenStack and virt-manager. QEMU as a whole is released under the GNU General Public License, version 2. For full licensing details, consult the LICENSE file. Building ======== QEMU is multi-platform software intended to be buildable on all modern Linux platforms, OS-X, Win32 (via the Mingw64 toolchain) and a variety of other UNIX targets. The simple steps to build QEMU are: mkdir build cd build ../configure make Additional information can also be found online via the QEMU website: https://qemu.org/Hosts/Linux https://qemu.org/Hosts/Mac https://qemu.org/Hosts/W32 Submitting patches ================== The QEMU source code is maintained under the GIT version control system. git clone https://git.qemu.org/git/qemu.git When submitting patches, one common approach is to use 'git format-patch' and/or 'git send-email' to format & send the mail to the qemu-devel@nongnu.org mailing list. All patches submitted must contain a 'Signed-off-by' line from the author. Patches should follow the guidelines set out in the HACKING and CODING_STYLE files. Additional information on submitting patches can be found online via the QEMU website https://qemu.org/Contribute/SubmitAPatch https://qemu.org/Contribute/TrivialPatches The QEMU website is also maintained under source control. git clone https://git.qemu.org/git/qemu-web.git https://www.qemu.org/2017/02/04/the-new-qemu-website-is-up/ A 'git-publish' utility was created to make above process less cumbersome, and is highly recommended for making regular contributions, or even just for sending consecutive patch series revisions. It also requires a working 'git send-email' setup, and by default doesn't automate everything, so you may want to go through the above steps manually for once. For installation instructions, please go to https://github.com/stefanha/git-publish The workflow with 'git-publish' is: $ git checkout master -b my-feature $ # work on new commits, add your 'Signed-off-by' lines to each $ git publish Your patch series will be sent and tagged as my-feature-v1 if you need to refer back to it in the future. Sending v2: $ git checkout my-feature # same topic branch $ # making changes to the commits (using 'git rebase', for example) $ git publish Your patch series will be sent with 'v2' tag in the subject and the git tip will be tagged as my-feature-v2. Bug reporting ============= The QEMU project uses Launchpad as its primary upstream bug tracker. Bugs found when running code built from QEMU git or upstream released sources should be reported via: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/ If using QEMU via an operating system vendor pre-built binary package, it is preferable to report bugs to the vendor's own bug tracker first. If the bug is also known to affect latest upstream code, it can also be reported via launchpad. For additional information on bug reporting consult: https://qemu.org/Contribute/ReportABug Contact ======= The QEMU community can be contacted in a number of ways, with the two main methods being email and IRC - qemu-devel@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel - #qemu on irc.oftc.net Information on additional methods of contacting the community can be found online via the QEMU website: https://qemu.org/Contribute/StartHere -- End
