[PATCH v2 0/6] KVM: x86/mmu: Optimize TDP MMU huge page recovery during disable-dirty-log

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

 



Rework the TDP MMU disable-dirty-log path to batch TLB flushes and
recover huge page mappings, rather than zapping and flushing for every
potential huge page mapping.

With this series, dirty_log_perf_test shows a decrease in the time it takes to
disable dirty logging, as well as a decrease in the number of vCPU faults:

 $ ./dirty_log_perf_test -s anonymous_hugetlb_2mb -v 64 -e -b 4g

 Before: Disabling dirty logging time: 14.334453428s (131072 flushes)
 After:  Disabling dirty logging time: 4.794969689s  (76 flushes)

 Before: 393,599      kvm:kvm_page_fault
 After:  262,575      kvm:kvm_page_fault

v2:
 - Use a separate iterator to walk down to child SPTEs during huge page
   recovery [Sean]
 - Return SHADOW_NONPRESENT_VALUE in error conditions in
   make_huge_spte() [Vipin][off-list]

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20240805233114.4060019-8-dmatlack@xxxxxxxxxx/

David Matlack (6):
  KVM: x86/mmu: Drop @max_level from kvm_mmu_max_mapping_level()
  KVM: x86/mmu: Batch TLB flushes when zapping collapsible TDP MMU SPTEs
  KVM: x86/mmu: Refactor TDP MMU iter need resched check
  KVM: x86/mmu: Recover TDP MMU huge page mappings in-place instead of
    zapping
  KVM: x86/mmu: Rename make_huge_page_split_spte() to make_small_spte()
  KVM: x86/mmu: WARN if huge page recovery triggered during dirty
    logging
