History

Conghui 0f599e8d56 dm: add a new page for asyncio asyncio is a new mechanism in ACRN, which is special for these devices which need high IO performance. ACRN hypervisor would process the IO request from User VM in an async mode. Just like the original IOReq shared page, the devicemodel also create a page for fastio requests. As the asyncio use the ioeventfd, so the reuqests are handled in kernel, devicemodel only need to provide the page.

ACRN Device Model
#################

Introduction
============

The ACRN Device Model provides **device sharing** capabilities between the
Service VM and post-launched User VMs. It is a component that is used in
conjunction with the `ACRN Hypervisor`_ and is installed within the Service
VM.
