[PATCH v6 02/13] KVM: ARM: Introduce KVM_SET_DEVICE_ADDRESS ioctl

2013-01-16 Thread Christoffer Dall
On ARM (and possibly other architectures) some bits are specific to the model being emulated for the guest and user space needs a way to tell the kernel about those bits. An example is mmio device base addresses, where KVM must know the base address for a given device to properly emulate mmio acce
