[PATCH kvm-unit-tests v2] x86: setup segment registers before percpu areas

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

 



The base of the percpu area is stored in the %gs base, and writing
to %gs destroys it.  Move setup_segments earlier, before the %gs
base is written, and keep setup_percpu_area close so that the base
is updated close to the selector.
