Might it make sense to fix this issue under the existing locking scheme, then shift to what you're proposing? I say that, but the locking change in 03/21 would most certainly have a short lifetime until this patch supersedes it.Yes, definitely. The seqcount change would definitely go in much later. Extracting KVM_{GET,SET}_CLOCK to separate function would also be a patch of its own. Give me a few more days of frantic KVM Forum preparation. :)
Sounds good :-) I'm probably going to send this out once more, in three separate series: - x86 (no changes, just rebasing) - arm64 (address some comments, bugs) - selftests (no changes) -- Thanks, Oliver
