[RFC 3/8] always call kvm_write_guest

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

 



This patch makes sure that kvm_write_guest() is called
at every guest enter. We do not, however, want to update
all the structure at all times, so we add a flag
that basically tells it whether or not to do the whole operation
