Hi Paolo & Huacai,

Sorry to bother you, I do not know flow of kernel code reviewing and merging.

I want to know who should give a reviewed-by comments for these piece of code
about loongarch kvm patch. It should be kvm maintainer or LoongArch maintianer?
And any suggestion is welcome.


Regards
Bibo, Mao

>
> Changes for v6:

> loongarch parts.
>
> Changes for v5:
> 1. Implement get/set mp_state ioctl interface, and only the
> KVM_MP_STATE_RUNNABLE state is supported now, and other states
> will be completed in the future. The state is also used when vcpu

> 3. Improve the kvm_switch_to_guest function in switch.S, remove the
> previous tmp,tmp1 arguments and replace it with t0,t1 reg.
>
> Changes for v4:
> 1. Add a csr_need_update flag in _vcpu_put, as most csr registers keep
> unchanged during process context switch, so we need not to update it

> interface.

> Changes for v3:

> 2. Make some constant variables in kvm_context to global such as vpid_mask,

> 3. Add some new tracepoints, such as kvm_trace_idle, kvm_trace_cache,
> kvm_trace_gspr, etc.
> 4. There are some duplicate codes in kvm_handle_exit and kvm_vcpu_run,
> so we move it to a new function kvm_pre_enter_guest.
> 5. Change the RESUME_HOST, RESUME_GUEST value, return 1 for resume guest
> and "<= 0" for resume host.
> 6. Fcsr and fpu registers are saved/restored together.

> Changes for v2:
> 1. Seprate the original patch-01 and patch-03 into small patches, and the

> etc.
> 2. Remove the original KVM_{GET,SET}_CSRS ioctl in the kvm uapi header,
