Subject: [PATCH 2/3] kvmppc: add hypercall infrastructure - guest part v3
Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2008 08:27:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1221546450-15761-3-git-send-email-ehrhardt@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1221546450-15761-1-git-send-email-ehrhardt@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

From: Christian Ehrhardt <ehrhardt@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This adds the guest portion of the hypercall infrastructure.

Version 3 now follows the beat ABI, but proposes a new implementation style as
static inline asm functions instead of pure assembler code. That should allow
the compiler to be more flexible and therefore a better optimization.

If people agree on that new implementation style we might merge this code.
The current implementation of beat style hypercalls can be found in
arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/beat_hvCall.S
