Exactly. I hope the page-pin will avoid me having to serialize the KVM page fault against the start/end critical section. BTW, I wonder if the start/end critical section API is intended to forbid scheduling inside it. In short I wonder if GRU can is allowed to take a spinlock in _range_start as last thing before returning, and to release that same spinlock in _range_end as first thing, and not to be forced to use a mutex. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
