Yeah; if somebody wants to argue that the other set of semantics make more sense considered purely as a KVM kernel-to-user API I have no objection. (QEMU's current "we'll do that at some point in the future" implementation follows the typical semantics for reset/shutdown triggered by a device register write I think: the write-to-device-register instruction will generally complete and CPU execution continue before the prodded device can get the system reset process done. But we don't necessarily need to be bound by that idea.) -- PMM -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
