2018-02-07Add memfd based hostmemMarc-André Lureau1-0/+2
Add a new memory backend, similar to hostmem-file, except that it doesn't need to create files. It also enforces memory sealing. This backend is mainly useful for sharing the memory with other processes. Note that Linux supports transparent huge-pages of shmem/memfd memory since 4.8. It is relatively easier to set up THP than a dedicate hugepage mount point by using "madvise" in /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled. Since 4.14, memfd allows to set hugetlb requirement explicitly. Pending for merge in 4.16 is memfd sealing support for hugetlb backed memory. Usage: -object memory-backend-memfd,id=mem1,size=1G Signed-off-by: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Message-Id: <20180201132757.23063-5-marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

2016-10-30cryptodev: introduce a new cryptodev backendGonglei1-0/+1
The new cryptodev backend named cryptodev-builtin, which realized by QEMU cipher APIs. These APIs can be backed by either nettle or gcrypt. Signed-off-by: Gonglei <arei.gonglei@huawei.com> Reviewed-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>

2014-08-06backends: Introduce chr-testdevPaolo Bonzini1-1/+1
From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> chr-testdev enables a virtio serial channel to be used for guest initiated qemu exits. hw/misc/debugexit already enables guest initiated qemu exits, but only for PC targets. chr-testdev supports any virtio-capable target. kvm-unit-tests/arm is already making use of this backend. Currently there is a single command implemented, "q". It takes a (prefix) argument for the exit code, thus an exit is implemented by writing, e.g. "1q", to the virtio-serial port. It can be used as: $QEMU ... \ -device virtio-serial-device \ -device virtserialport,chardev=ctd -chardev testdev,id=ctd or, use: $QEMU ... \ -device virtio-serial-device \ -device virtconsole,chardev=ctd -chardev testdev,id=ctd to bind it to virtio-serial port0.

2014-06-18add memdev backend infrastructureIgor Mammedov1-0/+2
Provides framework for splitting host RAM allocation/ policies into a separate backend that could be used by devices. Initially only legacy RAM backend is provided, which uses memory_region_init_ram() allocator and compatible with every CLI option that affects memory_region_init_ram().

2014-05-08build: convert some obj-specific CFLAGS to use new foo.o-cflags syntaxMichael Tokarev1-1/+1
Current Makefile system allows using foo.o-cflags variables to store object-specific CFLAGS. Convert some usages of old syntax (using QEMU_CFLAGS += construct) to the new syntax.

2012-11-16rng-egd: introduce EGD compliant RNG backendAnthony Liguori1-1/+1
This backend talks EGD to a CharDriverState. A typical way to invoke this would be: qemu -chardev socket,host=localhost,port=1024,id=chr0 \ -object rng-egd,chardev=chr0,id=egd0 \ -device virtio-rng-pci,rng=egd0 Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2012-11-16rng-random: add an RNG backend that uses /dev/random (v3)Anthony Liguori1-1/+1
The filename can be overridden but it expects a non-blocking source of entropy. A typical invocation would be: qemu -object rng-random,id=rng0 -device virtio-rng-pci,rng=rng0 This can also be used with /dev/urandom by using the command line: qemu -object rng-random,filename=/dev/urandom,id=rng0 \ -device virtio-rng-pci,rng=rng0 Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> --- v1 -> v2 - merged header split patch into this one v2 -> v3 - bug fix in rng-random (Paolo)
