Subject: [kvm-ppc-devel] [PATCH 0 of 2] [RFC] Remedy PowerPC idle guest
Date: Fri, 28 Mar 2008 21:34:05 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <patchbomb.1206740045@thinkpadL> (raw)

This set of patches 
        1) enable linux guests to indicate to KVM that
           they are idle by setting the wait state MSR
        2) KVM handle the wait state by rescheduling the
           guest vcpu thread. 

Currently the guest still eats 12% of the CPU when idle.
