[pve-devel] [PATCH v3 qemu-server 1/2] add virtio-mem support

Fri Nov 18 13:13:19 CET 2022


This patch add virtio-mem support, through a new maxmemory option.

a 4GB static memory is needed for DMA+boot memory, as this memory
is almost always un-unpluggeable.

1 virtio-mem pci device is setup for each numa node on pci.4 bridge

virtio-mem use a fixed blocksize with 32k max blocksize,
so blocksize is computed from the maxmemory/32000 with a minimum of
2MB to map THP.
(lower blocksize = more chance to unplug memory).
