Date: Wed, 6 Jul 2016 07:00:30 +0200 From: Juergen Gross <jgross@...e.com> To: xen-devel@...ts.xenproject.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: sstabellini@...nel.org, boris.ostrovsky@...cle.com, david.vrabel@...rix.com, Juergen Gross <jgross@...e.com> Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] xen: support runqueue steal time on xen Up to now reading the stolen time of a remote cpu was not possible in a performant way under Xen. This made support of runqueue steal time via paravirt_steal_rq_enabled impossible. With the addition of an appropriate hypervisor interface this is now possible, so add the support.
