Subject: [PATCH] tools/libs/light: Remove unnecessary libxl_list_vm() call
Date: Mon, 19 Apr 2021 16:01:42 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cf7c0f8869a087008fbe10888ebf96336b1ccb7b.1618837159.git.costin.lupu@cs.pub.ro> (raw)

The removed lines were initially added by commit 314e64084d31, but the
subsequent code which was using the nb_vm variable was later removed by
commit 2ba368d13893, which makes these lines of code an overlooked
reminiscence. Moreover, the call becomes very expensive when there is a
considerable number of VMs (~1000 instances) running on the host.
