[RFC PATCH v2 06/12] KVM: x86: Provide paravirtualized flush_tlb_multi()

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

 



Support the new interface of flush_tlb_multi, which also flushes the
local CPU's TLB, instead of flush_tlb_others that does not. This
interface is more performant since it parallelize remote and local TLB
flushes.

The actual implementation of flush_tlb_multi() is almost identical to
that of flush_tlb_others().
