Subject: [PATCH 6/8] cpus: properly kick CPUs out of inner execution loop
Date: Fri,  8 Aug 2025 20:59:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250808185905.62776-7-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250808185905.62776-1-pbonzini@redhat.com>

Now that cpu_exit() actually kicks all accelerators, use it whenever
the message to another thread is processed in qemu_wait_io_event()
