[PATCH v2 00/13] More parallel operations for the TDP MMU

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

 



Now that the TDP MMU is able to handle page faults in parallel, it's a
relatively small change to expand to other operations. This series allows
zapping a range of GFNs, reclaiming collapsible SPTEs (when disabling
dirty logging), and enabling dirty logging to all happen under the MMU
lock in read mode.

This is partly a cleanup + rewrite of the last few patches of the parallel
page faults series. I've incorporated feedback from Sean and Paolo, but
the patches have changed so much that I'm sending this as a separate
series.

Ran kvm-unit-tests + selftests on an SMP kernel + Intel Skylake, with the
TDP MMU enabled and disabled. This series introduces no new failures or
warnings.

I know this will conflict horribly with the patches from Sean's series
which were just queued, and I'll send a v2 to fix those conflicts +
address any feedback on this v1.

Changelog
v2:
--	Rebased patches on top of kvm/queue to incorporate Sean's recent
	TLB flushing changes
--	Dropped patch 5: "KVM: x86/mmu: comment for_each_tdp_mmu_root
	requires MMU write lock" as the following patch to protect the roots
	list with RCU adds lockdep which makes the comment somewhat redundant.
