[PATCH v5 07/10] Drivers: hv: Introduce per-cpu event ring tail

Wed Feb 26 15:08:01 PST 2025


Add a pointer hv_synic_eventring_tail to track the tail pointer for the
SynIC event ring buffer for each SINT.

This will be used by the mshv driver, but must be tracked independently
since the driver module could be removed and re-inserted.
