@subsection Integer expressions
The monitor understands integers expressions for every integer
When using the built-in TFTP server, the router is also the TFTP
server.
-When using the @option{-redir} option, TCP or UDP connections can be
-redirected from the host to the guest. It allows for example to
-redirect X11, telnet or SSH connections.
+When using the @option{'-netdev user,hostfwd=...'} option, TCP or UDP
+connections can be redirected from the host to the guest. It allows for
+example to redirect X11, telnet or SSH connections.
@subsection Connecting VLANs between QEMU instances
syntax is:
@example
-qemu-system-i386 -device ivshmem,size=<size in format accepted by -m>[,shm=<shm name>]
+qemu-system-i386 -device ivshmem,size=@var{size},shm=@var{shm-name}
@end example
If desired, interrupts can be sent between guest VMs accessing the same shared
memory server is:
@example
-qemu-system-i386 -device ivshmem,size=<size in format accepted by -m>[,chardev=<id>]
- [,msi=on][,ioeventfd=on][,vectors=n][,role=peer|master]
-qemu-system-i386 -chardev socket,path=<path>,id=<id>
+# First start the ivshmem server once and for all
+ivshmem-server -p @var{pidfile} -S @var{path} -m @var{shm-name} -l @var{shm-size} -n @var{vectors}
+
+# Then start your qemu instances with matching arguments
+qemu-system-i386 -device ivshmem,size=@var{shm-size},vectors=@var{vectors},chardev=@var{id}
+ [,msi=on][,ioeventfd=on][,role=peer|master]
+ -chardev socket,path=@var{path},id=@var{id}
@end example
When using the server, the guest will be assigned a VM ID (>=0) that allows guests
With the @option{peer} case, the device should be detached and then reattached
after migration using the PCI hotplug support.
+@subsubsection ivshmem and hugepages
+
+Instead of specifying the <shm size> using POSIX shm, you may specify
+a memory backend that has hugepage support:
+
+@example
+qemu-system-i386 -object memory-backend-file,size=1G,mem-path=/mnt/hugepages/my-shmem-file,id=mb1
+ -device ivshmem,x-memdev=mb1
+@end example
+
+ivshmem-server also supports hugepages mount points with the
+@option{-m} memory path argument.
