Virtual CPU hotplug support is being added across various architectures [1][3].
This series adds various code bits common across all architectures:
1. vCPU creation and Parking code refactor [Patch 1]
2. Update ACPI GED framework to support vCPU Hotplug [Patch 2,3]
3. ACPI CPUs AML code change [Patch 4,5]
4. Helper functions to support unrealization of CPU objects [Patch 6,7]
Repository:
[*] Architecture *Agnostic* Patch-set (This series)
V14: https://github.com/salil-mehta/qemu.git virt-cpuhp-armv8/rfc-v3.arch.agnostic.v14
NOTE: This series is meant to work in conjunction with the architecture-specific
patch-set. For ARM, a combined patch-set (architecture agnostic + specific) was
earlier pushed as RFC V2 [1]. Later, RFC V2 was split into the ARM Architecture
specific patch-set RFC V3 [4] (a subset of RFC V2) and the architecture agnostic
patch-set. Patch-set V14 is the latest version in that series. This series
works in conjunction with RFC V4-rc1, present at the following link.
[*] ARM Architecture *Specific* Patch-set
RFC V3 [4]: https://github.com/salil-mehta/qemu.git virt-cpuhp-armv8/rfc-v3
RFC V4-rc1: https://github.com/salil-mehta/qemu.git virt-cpuhp-armv8/rfc-v4-rc1 (combined)
Revision History:
Patch-set V13 -> V14
1. Addresses Igor Mammedov's following review comments
- Mentioned abput new external APIs in the header note of [PATCH 1/7]
- Merged Doc [PATCH V13 8/8] with [PATCH V14 3/7]
- Introduced GED realize function for various CPU Hotplug regions initializations
- Added back event handler method to indirectly expose \\_SB.CPUS.CSCN to GED
_EVT. Like for ARM, it would be through \\_SB.GED.CSCN event handler method
- Collected the Ack given for [Patch V13 6/8]
- Added back the gfree'ing of GDB regs in common finalize and made it conditional
- Updated the header notes of [PATCH V13 3/8,4/8,5/8] to reflect the changes
