Current POWER cpus allow for a VRMA, a special mapping which describes a guest's view of memory when in real mode (MMU off, from the guest's point of view). Older cpus didn't have that which meant that to support a guest a special host-contiguous region of memory was needed to give the guest its Real Mode Area (RMA). KVM used to provide special calls to allocate a contiguous RMA for those cases. This was useful in the early days of KVM on Power to allow it to be tested on PowerPC 970 chips as used in Macintosh G5 machines. Now, those machines are so old as to be almost irrelevant. The normal qemu deprecation process would require this to be marked deprecated then removed in 2 releases. However, this can only be used with corresponding support in the host kernel - which was dropped years ago (in c17b98cf "KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Remove code for PPC970 processors" of 2014-12-03 to be precise). Therefore it should be ok to drop this immediately. Just to be clear this only affects *KVM HV* guests with PowerPC 970, and those already require an ancient host kernel. TCG and KVM PR guests with PowerPC 970 should still work. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Acked-by: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com> |
