However, if in future someone adds another MMIO range or if IOAPIC is accessed with XCHG (will this happen?), this may have potential issue.So I'd suggest adding comments that we didn't take any lock here, or add a check to make sure the range is on local APIC range. There is a comment in the patch I applied, and that section of code is specific to LAPIC handling. -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
