Reviewed-by: Peter Xu <pet...@redhat.com> Tested-by: Peter Xu <pet...@redhat.com> Nit: for TCG, looks like we are using a single thread for all vCPUs. In that case, I'd suggest we make sure KVM is enabled before running this script, otherwise raise error (It won't make sense we pin the same TID for lots of times). I believe that's a prerequisite for this one. Thanks, -- peterx
