The KVM implementation from MIPS (currently in mainline) supports UP systems in trap and emulate mode. The patch set I posted earlier adding VZ support also supports SMP. We leverage the Malta board emulation in QEMU to offer full non-PV virtualization: UP system: Malta board with a MIPS 24K processor SMP system: Malta board with a 1074K CMP processor cluster with a GIC. When it comes to PV/non-PV support, I see the two implementations as complementary. If people want full legacy system emulation without any kernel modifications, then they can run the full QEMU/KVM stack, while people interested in pure PV solutions can run the lkvm version.

No, OCTEON III does not support this optional behavior. For the most part this only impacts TLB management. I think in the context of KVM, you cannot leave foreign Guest's TLB entries present in the Guest TLB anyhow, so the feature is of little use. Since MIPS TLBs are managed by software, it is valid for a guest to populate the TLB in any way it desires. To have the hypervisor (KVM) come and randomly invalidate the TLB, via the GuestID mechanism, would both be detectable by the guest, and potentially make the guest operate incorrectly.
