S/390 based virtual machines support neither PCI nor MMIO, so a different transport is needed there. -The old s390-virtio mechanism used a special page mapped above -the guest's memory and several diagnose calls (hypercalls); it -does have some drawbacks, however, like a rather limited number -of devices and very restricted hotplug support. Moreover, device -discovery and operation differ from other environments on the -S/390 platform. - virtio-ccw uses the standard channel I/O based mechanism used for the majority of devices on S/390. A virtual channel device with a special control unit type acts as proxy to the virtio device |
