Subject: [PATCH] KVM: move alloc_apic_access_page() outside of non-preemptable region
Date: Thu, 14 Feb 2008 21:21:43 -0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080214232142.GA7924@dmt> (raw)
alloc_apic_access_page() can sleep, while vmx_vcpu_setup is called
inside a non preemptable region. Move it after put_cpu().
