Subject: [PATCH -rc][RESEND] KVM: MMU: Fix rare oops on guest context switch
Date: Fri, 14 Sep 2007 20:26:06 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <11897907663574-git-send-email-avi@qumranet.com> (raw)

A guest context switch to an uncached cr3 can require allocation of
shadow pages, but we only recycle shadow pages in kvm_mmu_page_fault().

Move shadow page recycling to mmu_topup_memory_caches(), which is called
from both the page fault handler and from guest cr3 reload.
