[PATCH] arm64: KVM: Optimize arm64 guest exit VFP/SIMD register save/restore

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

 



Currently VFP/SIMD registers are always saved and restored
on Guest entry and exit.

This patch only saves and restores VFP/SIMD registers on
Guest access. To do this cptr_el2 VFP/SIMD trap is set
on Guest entry and later checked on exit. This follows
the ARMv7 VFPv3 implementation. Running an informal test
there are high number of exits that don't access VFP/SIMD
registers.

Tested on FVP Model, executed threads on host and
Guest accessing VFP/SIMD registers resulting in consistent
results.
