Description Eduardo Habkost 2009-07-10 21:57:49 UTC
Tracker for suspend-related bugs on KVM. This is for suspend bugs on the host side, not suspend of guests.

Comment 1 Eduardo Habkost 2009-07-10 22:04:33 UTC
To properly fix suspend of the host with KVM, we would need the following patch set on the RHEL5 kernel: http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/5/24/108

Right now, there is no way for KVM to disable virtualization extensions on the CPU while it is being taken down, while no process can be scheduled on that CPU.

Everything is on_qa so I put the tracker on_qa too (instead of closing it)
