[PATCH v1 00/14] s390x: virtio-mem support


From: David Hildenbrand
Subject: [PATCH v1 00/14] s390x: virtio-mem support
Date: Tue, 10 Sep 2024 19:57:55 +0200

This series is based on:
    [PATCH v2] virtio: kconfig: memory devices are PCI only [1]

I finally found the time (IOW forced myself) to finish virtio-mem
support on s390x. The last RFC was from 2020, so I won't talk about
what changed -- a lot changed in the meantime :)

There is really not much left to do on s390x, because virtio-mem already
implements most things we need today (e.g., early-migration,
unplugged-inaccessible). The biggest part of this series is just doing what
we do with virtio-pci, wiring it up in the machine hotplug handler and ...
well, messing with the physical memory layout where we can now exceed
initial RAM size and have sparsity (memory holes).

I tested a lot of things, including:
 * Memory hotplug/unplug
 * Device hotplug/unplug
 * System resets / reboots
 * Migrate to/from file (including storage attributes under KVM)
 * Basic live migration
 * Basic postcopy live migration

More details on how to use it on s390x -- which is pretty much how
we use it on other architectures, except
s/virtio-mem-pci/virtio-mem-ccw/ --- is in the last patch.

This series introduces a new diag(500) "STORAGE LIMIT" subcode that will
be documented at [2] once this+kernel part go upstream.

There are not many s390x-specific virtio-mem future work items, except:
* Storage attribute migration might be improved
* We might want to reset storage attributes of unplugged memory
  (might or might not be required for upcoming page table reclaim in
   Linux; TBD)

I'll send out the kernel driver bits soon.
