How would you call a function on all cpus from a kernel extension? I'm curious; why would you want to do this? The only reasons I can think of have to do with changing per-CPU (vs. per context) state, and the OS owns all of that state.
I am working with the Intel virtualization technology and want to invoke the VMXON instruction on all CPUs. - Paul _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
