Move the call to local_event_delivery_enable out of vcpu_block, to a new static function called vcpu_block_enable_events. Use vcpu_block_enable_events instead of do_block throughout in schedule.c Signed-off-by: Stefano Stabe...

This series forms the kvm host part of paravirtual spinlock based against kvm tree. Please refer https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/8/6/178 for kvm guest part of the series. Please note that: kvm uapi: Add KICK_CPU and PV_UNHALT definition to uapi is a common patch for both guest and host.

The 5-patch series to follow this email extends KVM-hypervisor and Linux guest running on KVM-hypervisor to support pv-ticket spinlocks, based on Xen's implementation. One hypercall is introduced in KVM hypervisor,that allows a vcpu to kick another vcpu out of halt state. The blocking of vcpu is done using halt() in (lock_spinning) slowpath. Note: 1) patch is based on 3.4-rc3 + ticketlock

...changes with ticketlock + Xen changes (Ingo) - Removed CAP_PV_UNHALT since it is redundant (Avi). But note that we need newer qemu which uses KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID ioctl. - Rewrite GET_MP_STATE condition (Avi) - Make pv_unhalt = bool (Avi) - Move out reset pv_unhalt code to vcpu_run from vcpu_block (Gleb) - Documentation changes (Rob Landley) - Have a printk to recognize that paravirt spinlock is enabled (Nikunj) - Move out kick hypercall out of CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCK now so that it can be used for other optimizations such as flush_tlb_ipi_others etc. (Nikunj) Ticket locks have a...

This series replaces the existing paravirtualized spinlock mechanism with a paravirtualized ticketlock mechanism. The series provides implementation for both Xen and KVM. Changes in V10: Addressed Konrad's review comments: - Added break in patch 5 since now we know exact cpu to wakeup - Dropped patch 12 and Konrad needs to revert two patches to enable xen on hvm 70dd4998, f10cd522c -

The KVM introspection subsystem provides a facility for applications running on the host or in a separate VM, to control the execution of other VMs (pause, resume, shutdown), query the state of the vCPUs (GPRs, MSRs etc.), alter the page access bits in the shadow page tables (only for the hardware backed ones, eg. Intel's EPT) and receive notifications when events of interest have taken place
