[PATCH v4 26/26] RFC: KVM: Remove cpus_hardware_enabled and related sanity check

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

 



From: Isaku Yamahata <isaku.yamahata@xxxxxxxxx>

cpus_hardware_enabled mask seems incomplete protection against other kernel
component using CPU virtualization feature.  Because it's obscure and
incomplete, remove the check.
