--- Comment #33 from Benjamin Herrenschmidt (benh@...nel.crashing.org) ---
Jan,

For KVM, it can... you can back the guest using a file, and there's some
interest in doing just that to back guests using large "new memory" pmem stuff
for example.

This actually leads to more generic variant of that issue which is the need to
be able to provide proper "pinned" memory for some adapters in guest even if
they use ATSD, as not all adapters can deal with faults on everything (for
example they might be able to deal with fault on user buffers but not the
descriptor ring).

A discussion for another day I suppose..

As for AMD, I was looking at attachment
