Hi, This series aims to fix several bugs in VMPort and improve it by supporting more VMPort commands and make command results more configurable to user via QEMU command-line.
This functionality was proven to be useful to run various VMware VMs when attempting to run them as-is on top of QEMU/KVM. For more details, see commit messages. Regards, -Liran v1->v2: * Fix coding convention [Patchew Bot & MST]. * Create new header file for vmport.h [MST]. * Move KVM_APIC_BUS_FREQUENCY from linux-headers/asm-x86/kvm.h auto-generated header [MST] * Elaborate more that vmx-version refers to the VMware userspace VMM in commit message. [MST] * Use le32_to_cpu() on BIOS_UUID vmport command. [MST] * Introduce VMPort compatability version property to maintain migration compatibility. [MST] v2->v3: - Repalce VMPort compatability version property with multiple boolean compatability properties. [MST] - Prefix "vmx-*" properties with "vmware-vmx-*" to avoid confusion with Intel VT-x short name. Prefix suggested by MST. [MST] - Remove VMX_Type enum and instead hard-code default vmware-vmx-type value and only reference open-vm-tools for rest of values. [MST] - Add reference (link) to VMware open-vm-tools code. [MST]
