[PATCH 2/3] KVM: Check preempted_in_kernel for involuntary preemption

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

 



From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@xxxxxxxxxxx>

preempted_in_kernel is updated in preempt_notifier when involuntary preemption 
ocurrs, it can be stale when the voluntarily preempted vCPUs are taken into 
account by kvm_vcpu_on_spin() loop. This patch lets it just check preempted_in_kernel 
for involuntary preemption.
