Re: [Xen-devel] How to Stop scheduler

[Pankaj Parakh <me.pankajparakh@xxxxxxxxx>]

 If I pause a vcpu/domain using those functions, say if a domain's I/O
request over then its interrupt will raise and it can restart its
scheduling rite..?? How this interrupts are/ can be queued so that
when the vcpu is in pause state, it should nat change its state and
when it come back to wait state, those interrupt will not be lost..
