Subject: [RFC/PATCH PV_OPS X86_64 17/17] paravirt_ops - pda entry
Date: Thu, 08 Mar 2007 01:02:40 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1173333760.25848.18.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20070308054422.820010000@redhat.com
plain text document attachment (xx-paravirt-pda.patch)
We don't actually use this. But we started to. This patch adds a
vcpu entry into the PDA. This can come in handy, but we are not
sure if we want it. This is why it's in its own little patch.
