[PATCH 6/7] KVM: Drop KVM_REQ_MMU_RELOAD and update vcpu-requests.rst documentation

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

 



Remove the now unused KVM_REQ_MMU_RELOAD, shift KVM_REQ_VM_DEAD into the
unoccupied space, and update vcpu-requests.rst, which was missing an
entry for KVM_REQ_VM_DEAD.  Switching KVM_REQ_VM_DEAD to entry '1' also
fixes the stale comment about bits 4-7 being reserved.

-  When shadow page tables are used and memory slots are removed it's
-  necessary to inform each VCPU to completely refresh the tables.  This
-  request is used for that.
+  This request informs all VCPUs that the VM is dead and unusable, e.g. due to
+  fatal error or because the VMs state has been intentionally destroyed.
