Subject: [PATCH 11/16] accel/kvm: Consistently return CPU halt state from process_async_events
Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2026 20:16:34 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260813181640.6537-12-philmd@oss.qualcomm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260813181640.6537-1-philmd@oss.qualcomm.com>
When comparing the KVM implementations, RISCV and ARM differ
from S390x / PPC and LoongArch. The caller expects a non-zero
value to return pausing execution with the EXCP_HLT exception:
3427 int kvm_cpu_exec(CPUState *cpu)
3428 {
...
3434 if (kvm_arch_process_async_events(cpu)) {
3435 return EXCP_HLT;
3436 }
3437
3438 bql_unlock();
3439 cpu_exec_start(cpu);
3440
3441 /* Inner vCPU loop */
3442 do {
...
Change ARM and RISC-V to return cs->halted for consistent behavior.
