[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/2] add support for KVM_CAP_SPLIT_IRQCHIP

[Matt Gingell]

Hi,

The following patches adds support for the new KVM split irqchip
interface discussed on the KVM mailing list.

[kvm] KVM: x86: Split the APIC from the rest of IRQCHIP.
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/135918

Our testing found some issues with the implementation of split IRQ
chip in the kernel and fixes for those have been submitted to the 
KVM mailing list:

[kvm] KVM: x86: bug fixes for split IRQ chip
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/143109

With those patches, I’m able to pass KVM unit tests and boot Linux
and Windows. 

Any feedback is appreciated. 

Thanks,
Matt Gingell

Please choose more telling (and differentiating) subjects for the
individual patches.
