[PATCH] KVM: LAPIC: Accurately guarantee busy wait for timer to expire when using hv_timer

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

 



From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Commit ee66e453db13d (KVM: lapic: Busy wait for timer to expire when 
using hv_timer) tries to set ktime->expired_tscdeadline by checking 
ktime->hv_timer_in_use since lapic timer oneshot/periodic modes which 
are emulated by vmx preemption timer also get advanced, they leverage 
the same vmx preemption timer logic with tsc-deadline mode. However, 
ktime->hv_timer_in_use is cleared before apic_timer_expired() handling, 
let's delay this clearing in preemption-disabled region.
