[PATCH 3.12 030/182] KVM: s390: Optimize ucontrol path

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Tue May 13 2014 - 06:46:19 EST


From: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@xxxxxxxxxx>

3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit 2955c83f72801245afd0fe5c560cc75b82bea9aa upstream.

Since commit 7c470539c95630c1f2a10f109e96f249730b75eb
(s390/kvm: avoid automatic sie reentry) we will run through the C code
of KVM on host interrupts instead of just reentering the guest. This
will result in additional ucontrol exits (at least HZ per second). Let
handle a 0 intercept in the kernel and dont return to userspace,
even if in ucontrol mode.
