[PATCH 01/23] Prevent abortion on multiple VCPU kicks

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

 



From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@xxxxxxxxxxx>

If we call qemu_cpu_kick more than once before the target was able to
process the signal, pthread_kill will fail, and qemu will abort. Prevent
this by avoiding the redundant signal.

This logic can be found in qemu-kvm as well.
