From 33572ac0ad5ba5016da72e6654e607726568f9c0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Lalancette Date: Wed, 16 Jun 2010 17:11:11 -0400 Subject: KVM: x86: Introduce a workqueue to deliver PIT timer interrupts We really want to "kvm_set_irq" during the hrtimer callback, but that is risky because that is during interrupt context. Instead, offload the work to a workqueue, which is a bit safer and should provide most of the same functionality.
