Subject: [PATCH 06/10] KVM: Fix hang on uniprocessor
Date: Sun,  2 Dec 2007 13:18:43 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1196594327723-git-send-email-avi@qumranet.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1196594327338-git-send-email-avi@qumranet.com>

From: Marko Kohtala <marko.kohtala@gmail.com>

first_cpu(cpus) returns the only CPU when NR_CPUS is 1 regardless of
the cpus mask. Therefore we avoid a kernel hang in
KVM_SET_MEMORY_REGION ioctl on uniprocessor by not entering the loop at
all.
