Subject: [PATCH v13 2/7] KVM: Add generic support for dirty page logging
Date: Fri, 07 Nov 2014 00:40:43 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1415320848-13813-3-git-send-email-m.smarduch@samsung.com> (raw)
kvm_get_dirty_log() provides generic handling of dirty bitmap, currently reused
by several architectures. Building on that we intrdoduce
kvm_get_dirty_log_protect() adding write protection to mark these pages dirty
for future write access, before next KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl call from user
space.
