System shutdown is currently using request-less VCPU kicks. This leaves open a tiny race window, as it doesn't ensure the state change to power_off is seen by a VCPU just about to enter guest mode. VCPU requests, OTOH, are guaranteed to be seen (see "Ensuring Requests Are Seen" of Documentation/virtual/kvm/vcpu-requests.rst) This patch applies the EXIT request used by pause to power_off, fixing the race.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
