"[PATCH v3 00/26] Implementing a MSHV (Microsoft Hypervisor) accelerator" patchset in qemu-devel mailing list introduces MSHV support within Qemu.
With above patchset, Qemu guests can be started with `-accel mshv` option to use Microsoft Hypervisor (/dev/mshv) as the hypervisor. Retaining Libvirt's naming convention, this translates to `hyperv` domains. Below is an excerpt of the xml to use with this patchset:
``` <domain type='hyperv'> <name>qemu_msh_testv</name>
<cpu mode='host-model'/> <os> <type machine='q35'>hvm</type> </os> ...
```
This patch set introduces the necessary changes within libvirt to support Qemu guest with hyperv (mshv) hypervisor.
Chages in v3: - Addressed review comments on v2. - fixed qemucapabilitiestest case - Added a case to qemuxmlconftest
Changes in v2: - Addressed review comments on v1. - Added a test to verify mshv capabilities.
