v3 cover Add support for a fake, para-virtualised machine

Hi,

This is version three of the patches originally posted here:

v1.) http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2012-December/135870.html
v2.) http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2012-December/137750.html

Thanks to all those who have provided comments so far. Changes for v3 include:

* Ripped out *even more* SMP code by rebasing onto latest mainline
* Removed function-base property from device-tree binding
* Annotated the low-level firmware invocation functions with noinline to clarify intent
* Minor cleanups

As usual, testing this relies on KVM support for PSCI, a magic kvmtool and Mark Rutland's arch-timer patches.

Comments welcome,

Will

PATCH v3 2/6 ARM: opcodes: add opcodes definitions for ARM security extensions

In reply to Will Deacon

The ARM security extensions introduced the smc instruction, which is not supported by all versions of GAS.

This patch introduces opcodes-sec.h, so that smc is made available in a similar manner to hvc.

PATCH v3 5/6 ARM: Dummy Virtual Machine platform support

In reply to Will Deacon

From: Marc Zyngier <[email protected]>

Add support for the smallest, dumbest possible platform, to be used as a guest for KVM or other hypervisors.

It only mandates a GIC and architected timers. Fits nicely with a multiplatform zImage. Uses very little silicon area.

PATCH v3 5/6 ARM: Dummy Virtual Machine platform support

Quoted 10 lines · Will Deacon

From: Marc Zyngier <[email protected]>

Add support for the smallest, dumbest possible platform, to be used as a guest for KVM or other hypervisors.

It only mandates a GIC and architected timers. Fits nicely with a multiplatform zImage. Uses very little silicon area.

#21 lore raw

v3 cover Add support for a fake, para-virtualised machine

In reply to Will Deacon
Quoted 15 lines · Will Deacon

This is version three of the patches originally posted here:

v1.) http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2012-December/135870.html
v2.) http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2012-December/137750.html

Thanks to all those who have provided comments so far. Changes for v3 include:

* Ripped out *even more* SMP code by rebasing onto latest mainline
* Removed function-base property from device-tree binding
* Annotated the low-level firmware invocation functions with noinline to clarify intent
* Minor cleanups

Quoted 3 lines

As usual, testing this relies on KVM support for PSCI, a magic kvmtool and Mark Rutland's arch-timer patches.

Acked-by on the v3 series
