Subject: [PATCH v10 1/2] dt-bindings: vcpu_stall_detector: Add qemu,vcpu-stall-detector compatible
Date: Thu, 7 Jul 2022 15:42:26 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220707154226.1478674-2-sebastianene@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220707154226.1478674-1-sebastianene@google.com>
The VCPU stall detection mechanism allows to configure the expiration
duration and the internal counter clock frequency measured in Hz.
Add these properties in the schema.
While this is a memory mapped virtual device, it is expected to be loaded
when the DT contains the compatible: "qemu,vcpu-stall-detector" node.
In a protected VM we trust the generated DT nodes and we don't rely on
the host to present the hardware peripherals.
