[PATCH 1/3] KVM: do not bias the generation number in kvm_current_mmio_generation

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

 



The next patch will give a meaning (a la seqcount) to the low bit of the
generation number.  Ensure that it matches between kvm->memslots->generation
and kvm_current_mmio_generation().
