Hi,
A pseries guest can be run as a secure guest on Ultravisor-enabled
POWER platforms. On such platforms, this driver will be used to manage
the movement of guest pages between the normal memory managed by
hypervisor (HV) and secure memory managed by Ultravisor (UV).
This is an early post of HMM driver patches that manage page migration
between normal and secure memory.
Private ZONE_DEVICE memory equal to the amount of secure memory
available in the platform for running secure guests is created
via a HMM device. The movement of pages between normal and secure
memory is done by ->alloc_and_copy() callback routine of migrate_vma().
The page-in or page-out requests from UV will come to HV as hcalls and
HV will call back into UV via uvcalls to satisfy these page requests.
The implementation of uvcall themselves are not present in this post
and will be posted separately.
Changes in v1
=============
- Moved from global HMM pages hash table to per guest hash
- Added support for shared pages (non-secure/normal pages of a secure
guest)
- Misc cleanups and fixes
