Subject: [PATCH v3 06/10] KVM: arm/arm64: use vcpu requests for power_off
Date: Wed,  3 May 2017 18:06:31 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170503160635.21669-7-drjones@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170503160635.21669-1-drjones@redhat.com>

System shutdown is currently using request-less VCPU kicks. This
leaves open a tiny race window, as it doesn't ensure the state
change to power_off is seen by a VCPU just about to enter guest
mode. VCPU requests, OTOH, are guaranteed to be seen (see "Ensuring
Requests Are Seen" of Documentation/virtual/kvm/vcpu-requests.rst)
This patch applies the EXIT request used by pause to power_off,
closing the race window and also allowing us to remove the final
check of power_off in VCPU RUN, as the final check for requests
is sufficient.
