[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v1 1/2] cpus: don't use atomic_read for vm_clock_war


From: Alex Bennée
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v1 1/2] cpus: don't use atomic_read for vm_clock_warp_start
Date: Mon, 21 Mar 2016 16:23:05 +0000

As vm_clock_warp_start is a 64 bit value this causes problems for the
compiler trying to come up with a suitable atomic operation on 32 bit
hosts. The variable documentation says this is meant to be protected by
vm_clock_seqlock so lets just move the code into that section.

All other references to vm_clock_warp_start are already protected by the
seqlock.
