Subject: Loss of lock drop in qemu/net.c
Date: Tue, 16 Dec 2008 21:38:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4948039B.7060400@redhat.com> (raw)

hThe recent qemu merged does not allow net.h to include kvm code (due to 
a dependency on cpu.h).  This means I had to drop the 
kvm_sleep_begin()/kvm_sleep_end() around the packet send (which, btw, 
makes the whole thing vulnerable to hotunplug; we need refcounting or 
locking here).

We'll need to find some way to put this back in.

-- 
I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this
signature is too narrow to contain.
