X-Git-Tag: v3.15-rc1~119^2~7 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1f74ef0f2d7d692fcd615621e0e734c3e7771413;p=pandora-kernel.git virtio_balloon: don't softlockup on huge balloon changes. When adding or removing 100G from a balloon: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 22s! [vballoon:367] We have a wait_event_interruptible(), but the condition is always true (more ballooning to do) so we don't ever sleep. We also have a wait_event() for the host to ack, but that is also always true as QEMU is synchronous for balloon operations.
