[PATCH 14/15] kvm: Make kvm_state globally available

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

 



KVM-assisted devices need access to it but we have no clean channel to
distribute a reference. As a workaround until there is a better
solution, export kvm_state for global use, though use should remain
restricted to the mentioned scenario.
