Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] kvm: flush the dirty log when unregistering a slot
Date: Sun, 15 Jan 2012 16:17:31 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1326637051-23920-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> (raw)

Otherwise, the dirty log information is lost in the kernel forever.

Fixes opensuse-12.1 boot screen, which changes the vga windows rapidly.

Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

This patch gives me a deja vu - I'm sure I've fixed exactly the same issue
before.

Please test.
