Subject: [PATCH 1/3] KVM: Fix comments that refer to the non-existent VCPU_RUN ioctl
Date: Tue, 15 Sep 2026 09:44:39 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260915084441.3846947-2-fuad.tabba@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260915084441.3846947-1-fuad.tabba@linux.dev>

Neither the VCPU_RUN in kvm_main.c nor the VCPU RUN in kvm_host.h names
an ioctl that exists. The one that enters the guest is KVM_RUN, so refer
to it by that name.
