[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3] spapr: Add "memop" hypercall

2012-06-18 Thread Benjamin Herrenschmidt
This adds a qemu-specific hypervisor call to the pseries machine which allows to do what amounts to memmove, memcpy and xor over regions of physical memory such as the framebuffer. This is the simplest way to get usable framebuffer speed from SLOF since the framebuffer isn't mapped in the VRMA and
