[PATCH 02/33] KVM: MMU: emulated cmpxchg8b should be atomic on i386

From: Avi Kivity
Date: Sun Jan 06 2008 - 09:40:18 EST


From: Marcelo Tosatti <marcelo@xxxxxxxxx>

Emulate cmpxchg8b atomically on i386. This is required to avoid a guest
pte walker from seeing a splitted write.

[avi: make it compile]
