[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v6 0/3] Add max-ram-below-4g (was Add pci_hole_min_size machine option) |
Date: |

Changes v5 to v6:
rebased on git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/mst/qemu.git pci
Changed default handling. Most pc machines are now set to 3.5G
(0xe0000000) and q35 are set to 2.75G (0xb0000000). The special
value of 0 is used to flag the complex gigabyte_align memory
layout selection.
I did change the default for pc-i440fx-2.1 to 3G and pc-q35-2.1 to
2G instead of the complex gigabyte_align. This looks ok to me
because the statement by Gerd Hoffmann is about more ram for 32
bit (+non-PAE) guests can now have more then the defualt by
specifing the new option like "max-ram-below-4g=3.75G" or
"max-ram-below-4g=3.9375G". Or if that is too complex to
understand just select pc-i440fx-2.0 or pc-q35-2.0 to get what
they use to get.
Michael S. Tsirkin, Igor Mammedov, Marcel Apfelbaum:
#2 "pc & q35: Add new machine opt max-ram-below-4g":
Added setting of .default_machine_opts to include max-ram-below-4g
for all pc types.
Removed gigabyte_align.
Added warning on small value.
"less then" to "less than"
#3 "xen-hvm: Pass is_default to xen_hvm_init":
Changed to work with the changes in #2:
Added max_ram_below_4g_changed in order to know if it is a default value
or a user specified one.
Added "assert(pc_machine->max_ram_below_4g_changed > 0)" so that
"make check" will abort on default not set for any of the pc or
q35 machine types.
Dropped "Acked-by: Stefano Stabellin" do to bigger change.
Changes v4 to v5:
Re-work based on:
https://github.com/imammedo/qemu/commits/memory-hotplug-v11
And so it now depends on this patch set.
Stefano Stabellini:
#3 "xen-hvm: Pass is_default to xen_hvm_init"
Acked-by
Minor change of pmc to pcms.
Changes v3 to v4:
Split out #2 "GlobalProperty: Display warning about unused -global"
rebase on e00fcfe (origin/master)
rename xen-all to xen-hvm
Adjust #1 "xen-hvm: Fix xen_hvm_init() to adjust pc memory layout"
Switch Acked-by & Signed-off-by
rebase on master
Rework #3 "xen-hvm: Pass is_default to xen_hvm_init":
To pass is_default instead of max_ram_below_4g.
Also did not add "Acked-by: Stefano Stabellini" since code changed a lot.
Andreas Färber:
all: Remove dot at end of subject
#3 "xen-hvm: Pass is_default to xen_hvm_init"
Adjust comment formatting.
Andreas Färber, Paolo Bonzini, Marcel Apfelbaum:
rework to use "opts per machine"
Drop old #3, new #2.
Changes v2 to v3:
Stefano Stabellini:
Acked-by #1 "xen-all: Fix xen_hvm_init() to adjust pc memory"
Adjust for code readability #4 "xen-all: Pass max_ram_below_4g to
xen_hvm_init."
Set max_ram_below_4g always and use it to calculate above_4g_mem_size,
below_4g_mem_size.
Changes v1 to v2:
Michael S. Tsirkin:
Rename option.
Only add it to machine types that support it.
Split into 4 parts.
1/4 -- xen-all: Fix xen_hvm_init() to adjust pc memory layout
This looks to be a possible bug that has yet to be found.
below_4g_mem_size and above_4g_mem_size are stored in PcGuestInfo
(pc_guest_info_init) which are currently not "correct". This and
4/4 change the same lines.
2/4 -- GlobalProperty: Display warning about unused -global
My testing showed that setting a global property on an object
that is not used is not reported at all. This is added to help
when the new global is set but not used. The negative not_used
was picked so that all static objects are assumed to be used
even when they are not.
3/4 -- pc & q35: Add new object pc-memory-layout
The objects that it might make sense to add this property to all
get created too late. So add a new object just to hold this
property. Name it so that it is expected that only pc (and q35)
machine types support it.
4/4 -- xen-all: Pass max_ram_below_4g to xen_hvm_init
Seprate the xen only part of the change. Currectly based on patch 1/4
