Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 0/5] target/arm: Add MTE support to KVM guest
Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2021 09:28:19 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1615972140.git.haibo.xu@linaro.org> (raw)

This version is rebased against kernel patches v10, and only header
files are updated since v1[1].

This series add support for MTE(Memory Tagging Extension)[2]
in KVM guest. It's based on Steven Price's kernel KVM patches
v10[3], and has been tested to ensure that test case[4] can be
passed in a KVM guest. Basic pre-copy migration test also passed
between two MTE enabled kvm guest. 

This is a RFC patch series becuase:
(1) Need to add some arm MTE specific codes to the ram migration
    loop. There may be better way to do that in a more abstract way.
(2) Only pre-copy migration is supported and tested currently,
    post-copy as well as compress/zero page migration are still WIP.
    
All kinds of feedbacks are very welcomed, especially for the migration
support. 

Note:
(1) To support MTE migration, tags for one page are appended to  
    the page data during ram save iteration which make it easier
    to sync the page data and tags.
