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

 



From: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit 2955c83f72801245afd0fe5c560cc75b82bea9aa upstream.

Since commit 7c470539c95630c1f2a10f109e96f249730b75eb
(s390/kvm: avoid automatic sie reentry) we will run through the C code
of KVM on host interrupts instead of just reentering the guest. This
will result in additional ucontrol exits (at least HZ per second). Let
handle a 0 intercept in the kernel and dont return to userspace,
even if in ucontrol mode.
