[PATCH v7 1/5] ptp_kvm: probe for kvm guest availability

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

 



In the event of moving pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va() definition to common
pvclock code, this function could return a value on non KVM guests.
If user tried to load the module (or have it builtin) it would fail
with a GPF on ptp_kvm_init when running on a Xen guest. Therefore,
ptp_kvm_init() should check whether it is running in a KVM guest.
