[kvm-unit-tests PATCH 5/8] s390x: uv-host: Explain why we set up the home space and remove the space change

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

 



UV home addresses don't require us to be in home space but we need to
have it set up so hw/fw can use the home asce to translate home
virtual addresses.

Hence we add a comment why we're setting up the home asce and remove
the address space since it's unneeded.
