4.37 KVM_GET_MP_STATE
|
||||
|
||||
Capability: KVM_CAP_MP_STATE
|
||||
Architectures: x86, ia64
|
||||
Type: vcpu ioctl
|
||||
Parameters: struct kvm_mp_state (out)
|
||||
Returns: 0 on success; -1 on error
|
||||
|
||||
struct kvm_mp_state {
|
||||
__u32 mp_state;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
Returns the vcpu's current "multiprocessing state" (though also valid on
|
||||
uniprocessor guests).
|
||||
|
||||
Possible values are:
|
||||
|
||||
- KVM_MP_STATE_RUNNABLE: the vcpu is currently running
|
||||
- KVM_MP_STATE_UNINITIALIZED: the vcpu is an application processor (AP)
|
||||
which has not yet received an INIT signal
|
||||
- KVM_MP_STATE_INIT_RECEIVED: the vcpu has received an INIT signal, and is
|
||||
now ready for a SIPI
|
||||
- KVM_MP_STATE_HALTED: the vcpu has executed a HLT instruction and
|
||||
is waiting for an interrupt
|
||||
- KVM_MP_STATE_SIPI_RECEIVED: the vcpu has just received a SIPI (vector
|
||||
accesible via KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS)
|
||||
|
||||
This ioctl is only useful after KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP. Without an in-kernel
|
||||
irqchip, the multiprocessing state must be maintained by userspace.

||||

4.38 KVM_SET_MP_STATE
|
||||
|
||||
Capability: KVM_CAP_MP_STATE
|
||||
Architectures: x86, ia64
|
||||
Type: vcpu ioctl
|
||||
Parameters: struct kvm_mp_state (in)
|
||||
Returns: 0 on success; -1 on error
|
||||
|
||||
Sets the vcpu's current "multiprocessing state"; see KVM_GET_MP_STATE for
|
||||
arguments.
