AFAIR, it "SENSE RUNNING" allows you to test if the target CPU is scheduled by the hypervisor. So it is used for performance optimization, but correctness of a program barely depends on it. a) You can always return "not running" and it would be totally fine b) Return "running" would also most probably always valid (although it does not make too much sense for STOPPED CPUs). E.g., in KVM we set CPUSTAT_RUNNING whenever we load the CPU. This can also happen (AFAIR) when the CPU state is already stopped (e.g., currently getting stopped) or still sleeping (e.g., about to wake up, or in kvm_vcpu_block()). Long story short: There is no trusting on these values. But yeah, the heuristic we are using is sub-optimal. :) Reviewed-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com>

No idea. How many people use smp with tcg?

The logic was inversed and reported running if the cpu was stopped. Let's fix that. Signed-off-by: Janosch Frank <frankja@linux.ibm.com> --- target/s390x/sigp.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)
