From fcad0d2121976df4b422b4007a5eb7fcaac01134 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Kardashevskiy Date: Tue, 13 Mar 2018 11:17:31 -0600 Subject: ppc/spapr, vfio: Turn off MSIX emulation for VFIO devices This adds a possibility for the platform to tell VFIO not to emulate MSIX so MMIO memory regions do not get split into chunks in flatview and the entire page can be registered as a KVM memory slot and make direct MMIO access possible for the guest. This enables the entire MSIX BAR mapping to the guest for the pseries platform in order to achieve the maximum MMIO preformance for certain devices.
