Subject: [PATCH] kvm/vmx: fix the return value of handle_vmcall()
Date: Mon, 10 Dec 2012 15:28:13 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <50C653ED.9000009@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
The return value of kvm_emulate_hypercall() is intended to inform callers
whether or not we need to exit to userspace. However, handle_vmcall()
currently ignores the return value.
This patch simply propogates the return value from kvm_emulate_hypercall()
to callers so that it can be acted upon appropriately.
