This series enables Linux guests running on Hyper-V on ARM64 hardware. New ARM64-specific code in arch/arm64/hyperv initializes Hyper-V and its hypercall mechanism. Existing architecture independent drivers for Hyper-V's VMbus and synthetic devices just work when built for ARM64. Hyper-V code is built and included in the image and modules only if CONFIG_HYPERV is enabled.[...]quoted
Hyper-V on ARM64 runs with a 4 Kbyte page size, but allows guests with 4K/16K/64K page size. Linux guests with this patch series work with all three supported ARM64 page sizes. The Hyper-V vPCI driver at drivers/pci/host/pci-hyperv.c has x86/x64-specific code and is not being built for ARM64. Enabling Hyper-V vPCI devices on ARM64 is in progress via a separate set of patches. This patch set is based on the linux-next20210720 code tree.Is it possible to rebase this on top of -rc3? Are there any dependencies or do you plan to upstream this via a different tree?There are dependencies on changes in the hyperv-next tree (https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/hyperv/linux.git/) which is why you are getting the build errors. The changes common-ized some code between the x86 side and previous versions of this patch set (and fixed the #include nmi.h problem). So the code would most naturally go upstream through that tree.
In that case, for this series: Acked-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> I don't think there'd be conflicts with the arm64 changes but we can spot them early in -next. -- Catalin
