Subject: [PATCH 12/19] accel/tcg: inline cpu_exit()
Date: Mon, 8 Sep 2025 12:12:34 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250908101241.2110068-13-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250908101241.2110068-1-pbonzini@redhat.com>
Right now, cpu_exit() is not usable from all accelerators because it
includes a TCG-specific thread kick. In fact, cpu_exit() doubles as
the TCG thread-kick via tcg_kick_vcpu_thread().
In preparation for changing that, inline cpu_exit() into
tcg_kick_vcpu_thread(). The direction of the calls can then be
reversed, with an accelerator-independent cpu_exit() calling into
qemu_vcpu_kick() rather than the opposite.
