![]() Let's add our virtio-mem-ccw proxy device and wire it up. We should be supporting everything (e.g., device unplug, "dynamic-memslots") that we already support for the virtio-pci variant. With a Linux guest that supports virtio-mem (and has automatic memory onlining properly configured) the following example will work: 1. Start a VM with 4G initial memory and a virtio-mem device with a maximum capacity of 16GB: qemu/build/qemu-system-s390x \ --enable-kvm \ -m 4G,maxmem=20G \ -nographic \ -smp 8 \ -hda Fedora-Server-KVM-40-1.14.s390x.qcow2 \ -chardev socket,id=monitor,path=/var/tmp/monitor,server,nowait \ -mon chardev=monitor,mode=readline \ -object memory-backend-ram,id=mem0,size=16G,reserve=off \ -device virtio-mem-ccw,id=vmem0,memdev=mem0,dynamic-memslots=on 2. Query the current size of virtio-mem device: (qemu) info memory-devices Memory device [virtio-mem]: "vmem0" memaddr: 0x100000000 node: 0 requested-size: 0 size: 0 max-size: 17179869184 block-size: 1048576 memdev: /objects/mem0 3. Request to grow it to 8GB (hotplug 8GB): (qemu) qom-set vmem0 requested-size 8G (qemu) info memory-devices Memory device [virtio-mem]: "vmem0" memaddr: 0x100000000 node: 0 requested-size: 8589934592 size: 8589934592 max-size: 17179869184 block-size: 1048576 memdev: /objects/mem0 4. Request to grow to 16GB (hotplug another 8GB): (qemu) qom-set vmem0 requested-size 16G (qemu) info memory-devices Memory device [virtio-mem]: "vmem0" memaddr: 0x100000000 node: 0 requested-size: 17179869184 size: 17179869184 max-size: 17179869184 block-size: 1048576 memdev: /objects/mem0 5. Try to hotunplug all memory again, shrinking to 0GB: (qemu) qom-set vmem0 requested-size 0G (qemu) info memory-devices Memory device [virtio-mem]: "vmem0" memaddr: 0x100000000 node: 0 requested-size: 0 size: 0 max-size: 17179869184 block-size: 1048576 memdev: /objects/mem0 6. If it worked, unplug the device (qemu) device_del vmem0 (qemu) info memory-devices (qemu) object_del mem0 7. Hotplug a new device with a smaller capacity and directly size it to 1GB (qemu) object_add memory-backend-ram,id=mem0,size=8G,reserve=off (qemu) device_add virtio-mem-ccw,id=vmem0,memdev=mem0,\ dynamic-memslots=on,requested-size=1G (qemu) info memory-devices Memory device [virtio-mem]: "vmem0" memaddr: 0x100000000 node: 0 requested-size: 1073741824 size: 1073741824 max-size: 8589934592 block-size: 1048576 memdev: /objects/mem0 Trying to use a virtio-mem device backed by hugetlb into a !hugetlb VM correctly results in the error: ... Memory device uses a bigger page size than initial memory Note that the virtio-mem driver in Linux will supports 1 MiB (pageblock) granularity.
