From: Liam Merwick Date: Mon, 9 Jun 2025 09:11:19 +0000 (+0000) Subject: KVM: Allow CPU to reschedule while setting per-page memory attributes X-Git-Url: https://git.kernel.dk/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=47bb584237cc285e3a860b70c01f7bda9dcfb05b;p=linux-block.git KVM: Allow CPU to reschedule while setting per-page memory attributes When running an SEV-SNP guest with a sufficiently large amount of memory (1TB+), the host can experience CPU soft lockups when running an operation in kvm_vm_set_mem_attributes() to set memory attributes on the whole range of guest memory. watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#8 stuck for 26s!
