Subject: [PATCH 0/10] KVM: Nested SVM fixes and tracepoint conversion
Date: Wed, 7 Oct 2009 16:31:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1254925888-13743-1-git-send-email-joerg.roedel@amd.com> (raw)

Hi Avi, Marcelo,

this series of patches contains bugfixes for the Nested SVM code and the
conversion of Nested SVM debugging to tracepoints. The fixes are:

	1) A patch Alex already sent (1/10) but which was not yet
	   applied. It fixes a lost event_inj problem when we emulate
	   a vmrun and a vmexit without entering the guest in
	   the meantime.

	2) The patches 2/10 and 3/10 fixing a schedule() while atomic
	   bug in the Nested SVM code. The KVM interrupt injection code
	   runs with preemtion and interrupts disabled. But the
	   enable_irq_window() function from SVM may emulate a #vmexit.
	   This emulation migth sleep which causes the schedule() while
	   atomic() bug.

These fixes (patches 1 to 3) should also be considered for -stable
backporting.

The patches 3 to 9 convert the old printk based debugging for Nested
SVM to tracepoints. Patch 10 removes the nsvm_printk code. Please review
and/or consider to apply these changes.

Thanks,

	Joerg
