From ca242ac9960dc61530e25a2c190e4e13fd5f1ecb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Avi Kivity Date: Tue, 21 Sep 2010 19:59:43 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: Fix reboot on Intel hosts When we reboot, we disable vmx extensions or otherwise INIT gets blocked. If a task on another cpu hits a vmx instruction, it will fault if vmx is disabled. We trap that to avoid a nasty oops and spin until the reboot completes. Problem is, we sleep with interrupts disabled. This blocks smp_send_stop() from running, and the reboot process halts. Fix by enabling interrupts before spinning. KVM-Stable-Tag.
