Thus I don't think that vmcs area is allocated twice for each vcpu. Regards, Guillaume - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

[kvm-devel] multiple allocation for vmcs or am i missing something.
When kvm initializes, it calls hardware_setup which calls alloc_kvm_area which allocates vmcs for each online processor and stores the pointer in percpu basis. Later when vmx_create_vcpu is called, the vmcs area is allocated (again) and this time for the cpu the code is currently executing on. possibly it is already allocated. Is this a bug or i am missing something. -- --- regards Manish Regmi - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
