Subject: [PATCH 2/8] xen/x86-64: clean up warnings about IST-using traps
Date: Thu, 7 May 2009 13:24:56 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1241727902-3176-3-git-send-email-jeremy@goop.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1241727902-3176-1-git-send-email-jeremy@goop.org>
From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>
Ignore known IST-using traps. Aside from the debugger traps, they're
low-level faults which Xen will handle for us, so the kernel needn't
worry about them. Keep warning in case unknown trap starts using IST.
