2019-10-21KVM: arm64: Document PV-time interfaceSteven Price1-0/+80
Introduce a paravirtualization interface for KVM/arm64 based on the "Arm Paravirtualized Time for Arm-Base Systems" specification DEN 0057A. This only adds the details about "Stolen Time" as the details of "Live Physical Time" have not been fully agreed. User space can specify a reserved area of memory for the guest and inform KVM to populate the memory with information on time that the host kernel has stolen from the guest. A hypercall interface is provided for the guest to interrogate the hypervisor's support for this interface and the location of the shared memory structures.
