From 6adba527420651b6cacaf392541c09fb108711a2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gleb Natapov Date: Thu, 14 Oct 2010 11:22:55 +0200 Subject: KVM: Let host know whether the guest can handle async PF in non-userspace context. If guest can detect that it runs in non-preemptable context it can handle async PFs at any time, so let host know that it can send async PF even if guest cpu is not in userspace.
