Agenda
  1. ACRN project update: N/A
  2. ‘WW39’21 ACRN Software SRAM Introduction’ Huang Yonghua
Download foil from ACRN Presentation->WW39’21
Description: We will introduce Software SRAM technology, architecture design in ACRN, and also how to enable it for ACRN pre/post-launched RTVM.
 
  1. All: Community open discussion.
Q&A: 
  1. Which IA platform could support TCC tool, and if every community individual could try TCC tool, without any access restriction ?
A: Yes, most ACRN recommended platforms support TCC tool, e.g., TGL. It is open to try this tool, find more details in Intel® TCC Tools.
  1. vRTCD is in SOS or Hypervisor ?
A: For Pre-launched VM, RTCD is pass-through, for post-launched, it is in DM.
  1. Does Software SRAM support L3 cache?
A: No
  1. Could we enable both CAT and SSRAM together?
A: No, they are not compatible now, you can only choose one, but cannot enable them at the same time.

Yonghua Huang
 

Minor corrections for below :

  1. vRTCT is in SOS or Hypervisor ?

         A: For Pre-launched VM, RTCT is pass-through, for post-launched, vRTCT is built in SOS/DM.

  1. Does Software SRAM support L3 cache?

      A: Yes, both L2 and L3 are supported for Post-launched RTVM and Only L3 is supported in ACRN on platform that Software SRAM is supported.  

 

 

Thanks.
