From db85b8ff32c46796aa91fecb04ea1ae3411c077e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andreas Sandberg Date: Thu, 27 Jul 2017 09:26:07 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] kvm, arm: Switch to the device EQ when accessing ISA devices ISA devices typically run in the device event queue. Previously, we assumed that devices would perform their own EQ migrations as needed. This isn't ideal since it means we have different conventions for IO devices and ISA devices. Switch to doing migrations in the KVM CPU instead to make the behavior consistent.
