Changes since v5:
- Fix a couple of issues reported by kbuild test robot, both in
PATCH7 (hope Radim's Reviewed-by: stands).
When running nested KVM on Hyper-V it's possible to use so called
'Enlightened VMCS' and do normal memory reads/writes instead of
doing VMWRITE/VMREAD instructions. In addition, clean field mask
provides a huge room for optimization on L0's side.
Tight CPUID loop test shows significant speedup (E5-2667 v4 @ 3.20GHz):
Before: 18890 cycles
After: 8304 cycles
Ladi Prosek (1):
x86/kvm: rename HV_X64_MSR_APIC_ASSIST_PAGE to
HV_X64_MSR_VP_ASSIST_PAGE
Vitaly Kuznetsov (6):
x86/hyper-v: move hyperv.h out of uapi
x86/hyper-v: move definitions from TLFS to hyperv-tlfs.h
x86/hyper-v: allocate and use Virtual Processor Assist Pages
x86/hyper-v: define struct hv_enlightened_vmcs and clean field bits
x86/hyper-v: detect nested features
x86/kvm: use Enlightened VMCS when running on Hyper-V
