[PATCH] KVM: fix avic_set_running for preemptable kernels

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

 



avic_set_running() passes the current CPU to avic_vcpu_load(), albeit
via vcpu->cpu rather than smp_processor_id().  If the thread is migrated
while avic_set_running runs, the call to avic_vcpu_load() can use a stale
value for the processor id.  Avoid this by blocking preemption over the
entire execution of avic_set_running().
