28 * DOC: Intel GVT-g guest support
29 *
30 * Intel GVT-g is a graphics virtualization technology which shares the
31 * GPU among multiple virtual machines on a time-sharing basis. Each
32 * virtual machine is presented a virtual GPU (vGPU), which has equivalent
33 * features as the underlying physical GPU (pGPU), so i915 driver can run
34 * seamlessly in a virtual machine. This file provides vGPU specific
35 * optimizations when running in a virtual machine, to reduce the complexity
36 * of vGPU emulation and to improve the overall performance.
37 *
38 * A primary function introduced here is so-called "address space ballooning"
39 * technique. Intel GVT-g partitions global graphics memory among multiple VMs,
40 * so each VM can directly access a portion of the memory without hypervisor's
41 * intervention, e.g. filling textures or queuing commands. However with the
42 * partitioning an unmodified i915 driver would assume a smaller graphics
43 * memory starting from address ZERO, then requires vGPU emulation module to
44 * translate the graphics address between 'guest view' and 'host view', for
45 * all registers and command opcodes which contain a graphics memory address.
46 * To reduce the complexity, Intel GVT-g introduces "address space ballooning",
47 * by telling the exact partitioning knowledge to each guest i915 driver, which
48 * then reserves and prevents non-allocated portions from allocation. Thus vGPU
49 * emulation module only needs to scan and validate graphics addresses without
50 * complexity of address translation.
