[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 00/17] ppc: preparing pnv landing

[Cédric Le Goater]

Hello,

This is a first mini-serie of patches adding support for new ppc SPRs.
They were taken from Ben's larger patchset adding the ppc powernv
platform and they should already be useful for the pseries guest
migration.

Initial patches come from :

        https://github.com/ozbenh/qemu/commits/powernv

The changes are mostly due to the rebase on Dave's 2.6 branch:

        https://github.com/dgibson/qemu/commits/ppc-for-2.6

A couple more are bisect and checkpatch fixes and finally some patches
were merge to reduce the noise.

      

The patchset is also available here: 

        https://github.com/legoater/qemu/commits/for-2.6

It was quickly tested with a pseries guest using KVM and TCG.

Thanks,

C.
