The sync wouldn't be needed for allocated regions use as shared rings, for example. You might be able to do a quick audit of users and then remove the vmalloc_sync_all(). Presumably if v_s_a is planned to go away it'd be nice to get rid of this usage for that reason also. -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
