Subject: [PATCH 1/2] KVM: x86: Terminate early if task_switch_16/32 failed
Date: Wed, 14 Apr 2010 15:50:57 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4BC5C841.5090302@siemens.com> (raw)
Stop the switch immediately if task_switch_16/32 returned an error. Only
if that step succeeded, the switch should actually take place and update
any register states.
