[PATCH 07/35] KVM: PPC: Preload magic page when in kernel mode

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

 



When the guest jumps into kernel mode and has the magic page mapped, theres a
very high chance that it will also use it. So let's detect that scenario and
map the segment accordingly.
