[PATCH 08/25] KVM: x86: unhalt vcpu0 on reset

From: Avi Kivity
Date: Sun Sep 28 2008 - 11:47:54 EST


From: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@xxxxxxxxxx>

Since "KVM: x86: do not execute halted vcpus", HLT by vcpu0 before system
reset by the IO thread will hang the guest.

Mark vcpu as runnable in such case.
