[PATCH v3 1/2] target/arm: kvm: Inject events at the last stage of sync

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS might actually lead to vcpu registers being modified.
As such this should be the last step of sync to avoid potential overwriting
of whatever changes KVM might have done.
