[PATCH v2 3/3] KVM: make make_all_cpus_request() lockless

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

 



Now, we have 'vcpu->guest_mode' to judge whether need to send
ipi to other cpus, this way is very exact, so checking request
bit is needless, then we can drop the spinlock let it's collateral
