[PATCH v2 28/60] KVM: PPC: Book3S HV P9: Improve mtmsrd scheduling by delaying MSR[EE] disable

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Moving the mtmsrd after the host SPRs are saved and before the guest
SPRs start to be loaded can prevent an SPR scoreboard stall (because
the mtmsrd is L=1 type which does not cause context synchronisation.

This is also now more convenient to combined with the mtmsrd L=0
instruction to enable facilities just below, but that is not done yet.
