Subject: [PATCH RFC 07/12] accel/kvm: Move post-conversion updates to a separate helper
Date: Wed, 27 May 2026 19:03:32 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260528000416.8161-8-michael.roth@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260528000416.8161-1-michael.roth@amd.com>
Currently memory attribute conversions are followed up by other
bookkeeping tasks like discarding unused memory or issuing iommufd
notifications. Move these tasks to a separate post-conversions helper to
better compartmentalize and track these tasks, and in doing so lay the
groundwork for a pre-conversion helper which will be needed in the
future.
