[Qemu-devel] [PATCH V1 0/2] Versioning ARM virt machine types


From: Wei Huang
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH V1 0/2] Versioning ARM virt machine types
Date: Fri, 11 Mar 2016 12:36:16 -0500

We start to see more features been added to ARM virtual machine models.
For the purpose of backward compatibility (e.g. migration), it is time
to consider versioning machine types for ARM VMs. As a beginning step, this
patchset defines an abstract machine type for ARM VMs. The current
"virt" machine is re-written based on this new abstract type accordingly.
These patches have been verified by booting existing VMs.

RFC->V1:
 * Rename the machine type to "virt-2.6", matching the imminent QEMU version
 * Remove mc->is_default (Peter's comment)

Thanks,
-Wei

  arm: virt: Add an abstract ARM virt machine type
  arm: virt: Move machine class init code to the abstract machine type
