Hi Amit,
Thanks for your answer. I was able to get your userspace pvdma version.
So now, I am using the PVDMA patched kernel and the PVDMA patches userspace.
However, I am not able to start the VM. I am running qemu with the following
options (I am trying without any pci passthrough first)
./qemu/x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -hda /root/kvm/dm2.img -m 256 -net none
The SDL windows appear but it hangs after showing the message "Press F12 for
boot menu.". I am not getting any message neither in qemu nor in dmesg. Do you
know what could be happening? May be a kernel compile option? It would be great
if you can send me the .config file that you used to compile it, just to check
the options.
Thanks,
Pablo
