> Subject: [PATCH 0/9] Introduce the implementation of GVT context
> 
> Mostly this patchset introduces the implementation of GVT context. GVT
> context is a special GEM context used by GVT-g. GVT-g uses it as the shadow
> context.It doesn't have a drm client nor a PPGTT. And it requires a larger ring
> buffer with several special features need by GVT-g workload scheduler like
> context status change notification, context single submission...
> 
> v6:
> 
> - Take Chris comments.
> 
> v5:
> 
> - Drop PPGTT related patches.
> - Let most functions take struct drm_i915_private *
> - Fixed some misspelled words in Kconfig
> - Only complied some feature when CONFIG_DRM_I915_GVT=y
> - Drop the fecne related changes, will send it after this series.
> 
> v4:
> 
> - Based on the latest drm-intel-nightly branch.
> - Drop PPGTT refactor patches. (GVT-g will use LRI to load PDPs)
> - Drop i915_gem_context() refactor patches, reuse kernel context functions.
>   (Dave Gordon)
> - Drop context allocation params and refactor as the lrc deferred
>   allocation function has been refactored in another styles.
> - Re-wrtie GVT context creation function

> Difference from community release
> ---------------------------------
> 
> This patchset is different from regular iGVT-g code release[4], which is still
> based on old host-mediated architecture. Furthermore, this patchset only
> supports BDW whereas code release supports HSW/BDW/SKL.
> We will add SKL support later based on this RFC code and HSW support will be
> dropped.
> 
> Internally we tested this RFC patchset with both linux and windows VM and the
> architecture changes work fine.

> Acknowledgment
> ---------------
> 
> iGVT-g implementation is several years effort and many people contributed to
> the code. There names are not here yet. In later formal patchset we will reflect
> individual's contribution.
> 
> Meanwhile, in the previous iGVT-g related discussion, Daniel, Chris and Joonas
> ever gave very good inputs. We appreciate them and look forward to more
> comments/suggestions from community.
> 
> We are trying to get more familiar with i915 but may still have gaps.
> We are willing to adopt suggestions to keep improving. We hope to work with
> community together to make iGVT-g a great component in i915 to support
> graphics virtualization. Thanks!
