Subject: [PATCH 0/9] Enhance NMI support of KVM - v2
Date: Fri, 19 Sep 2008 14:06:55 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <48D392F2.300@siemens.com> (raw)

After going through the NMI patches again, implementing a workaround for
older VMX CPUs without virtual NMIs, I came across several inconsistency
and lacking/forgotten features around NMI (and also a bit IRQ) handling.
So here is an enhanced patch series. Changes are:

 - VMX: workaround for lacking VNMI support on older CPUs with VMX
 - VMX: consolidate and fix NMI/IRQ window state determination
 - VMX: consolidate enabling code for NMI/IRQ window notification
 - VMX: fix NMI delivery in real-mode
 - rebased patch for in-kernel NMI watchdog support

Looking forward to feedback.

Jan
