Subject: [PATCH v5 3/5] KVM: selftests: Expand set of APIs for pinning tasks to a single CPU
Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2025 17:12:23 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250626001225.744268-4-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250626001225.744268-1-seanjc@google.com>
Expand kvm_pin_this_task_to_pcpu() into a set of APIs to allow pinning a
task (or self) to a CPU (any or specific). This will allow deduplicating
code throughout a variety of selftests.
Opportunistically use "self" instead of "this_task" as it is both more
concise and less ambiguous.
