similar to: [PATCH 00/10] s390: virtio: support protected virtualization

Enhanced virtualization protection technology may require the use of bounce buffers for I/O. While support for this was built into the virtio core, virtio-ccw wasn't changed accordingly. Some background on technology (not part of this series) and the terminology used. * Protected Virtualization (PV): Protected Virtualization guarantees, that non-shared memory of a guest that operates in PV

As virtio-ccw devices are channel devices, we need to use the dma area for any communication with the hypervisor. This patch addresses the most basic stuff (mostly what is required for virtio-ccw), and does take care of QDIO or any devices. An interesting side effect is that virtio structures are now going to get allocated in 31 bit addressable storage. Signed-off-by: Halil Pasic <pasic at

As virtio-ccw devices are channel devices, we need to use the dma area within the common I/O layer for any communication with the hypervisor. Note that we do not need to use that area for control blocks directly referenced by instructions, e.g. the orb. It handles neither QDIO in the common code, nor any device type specific stuff (like channel programs constructed by the DASD driver). An

Hi, next version of the guest exploitation of virtio-ccw adapter interrupts. Changes from the last version: - adapt to latest kvm-next - changed housekeeping for indicator locations: we now use cacheline-sized and aligned areas - minor tweaks Cornelia Huck (2): KVM: s390: virtio-ccw: Handle command rejects. KVM: s390: virtio-ccw adapter interrupt support. arch/s390/include/asm/irq.h
