Subject: [PATCH] kvm, async_pf: exit idleness when handling KVM_PV_REASON_PAGE_NOT_PRESENT
Date: Fri, 19 Oct 2012 12:11:55 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1350663115-11373-1-git-send-email-sasha.levin@oracle.com> (raw)
KVM_PV_REASON_PAGE_NOT_PRESENT kicks cpu out of idleness, but we haven't
marked that spot as an exit from idleness.
Not doing so can cause RCU warnings such as:
[ 732.788386] ===============================
