From 4bd518f1598d41985eb933aa73bac2605b70984c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paolo Bonzini Date: Fri, 3 Feb 2017 20:44:51 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: use separate generations for each address space MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This will make it easier to support multiple address spaces in kvm_gfn_to_hva_cache_init. Instead of having to check the address space id, we can keep on checking just the generation number.
