Often when a guest is stopped from the qemu console, it will report
spurious
soft lockup warnings on resume. There are kernel patches being
discussed that
will give the host the ability to tell the guest that it is being
stopped and
should ignore the soft lockup warning that generates. This patch uses
the qemu
Notifier system to tell the guest it is about to be stopped.

Changes from V7:
capabilty changed to KVM_CAP_KVMCLOCK_CTRL
KVM_GUEST_PAUSED is pervcpu again
CPUState renamed to CPUArchState

Thanks, change looks right to me.

I think I should have added Acked-by and resent full patch. So here is it. sorry for duplicate mail.

Changes from V7:
 capabilty changed to KVM_CAP_KVMCLOCK_CTRL
 KVM_GUEST_PAUSED is pervcpu again
 CPUState renamed to CPUArchState
 KVMCLOCK_GUEST_PAUSED changed to  KVM_KVMCLOCK_CTRL
 incorporated Andrea's comments (__FUNCTION__) etc

Changes from V6:
 Remove unnecessary include

Changes from V5:
 KVM_GUEST_PAUSED is now a per vm ioctl instead of per vcpu

Changes from V4:
 Test if the guest paused capability is available before use

Changes from V3:
 Collapse new state change notification function into existsing function.
 Correct whitespace issues
 Change ioctl name to KVMCLOCK_GUEST_PAUSED
 Use for loop to iterate vpcu's

Changes from V2:
 Move ioctl into hw/kvmclock.c so as other arches can use it as it is
implemented

Changes from V1:
 Remove unnecessary encapsulating function
