[PULL 2/3] KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Endian fix for accessing VPA yield count

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

 



From: Paul Mackerras <paulus@xxxxxxxxx>

The VPA (virtual processor area) is defined by PAPR and is therefore
big-endian, so we need a be32_to_cpu when reading it in
kvmppc_get_yield_count().  Without this, H_CONFER always fails on a
little-endian host, causing SMP guests to waste time spinning on
spinlocks.
