[PATCH] KVM: eventfd: Use synchronize_srcu_expedited()

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

 



When hot-unplug a device which has many queues, and guest CPU will has
huge jitter, and unplugging is very slow.

It turns out synchronize_srcu() in irqfd_shutdown() caused the guest
jitter and unplugging latency, so replace synchronize_srcu() with
synchronize_srcu_expedited(), to accelerate the unplugging, and reduce
the guest OS jitter, this accelerates the VM reboot too.
