[PATCH v4 12/12] KVM: remove KVM_REQ_UNHALT

Sean Christopherson seanjc at google.com
Wed Sep 21 10:32:01 AEST 2022


From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini at redhat.com>

KVM_REQ_UNHALT is now unnecessary because it is replaced by the return
value of kvm_vcpu_block/kvm_vcpu_halt.  Remove it.

No functional change intended.

-Clearing Requests
------------------
-
-Generally it only makes sense for the receiving VCPU thread to clear a
-request.  However, in some circumstances, such as when the requesting
-thread and the receiving VCPU thread are executed serially, such as when
-they are the same thread, or when they are using some form of concurrency
-control to temporarily execute synchronously, then it's possible to know
-that the request may be cleared immediately, rather than waiting for the
-receiving VCPU thread to handle the request in VCPU RUN.  The only current
-examples of this are kvm_vcpu_block() calls made by VCPUs to block
-themselves.  A possible side-effect of that call is to make the
-KVM_REQ_UNHALT request, which may then be cleared immediately when the
-VCPU returns from the call.
