[PATCH 2/2] KVM: MMU: Flush TLBs only once in invlpg() before releasing mmu_lock

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

 



This function's TLB flush was moved sometimes in the past:

1.
  commit 4539b35881ae9664b0e2953438dd83f5ee02c0b4
  KVM: Fix missing smp tlb flush in invlpg

inserted it in the critical section.

2.
  commit 505aef8f30a95f7e4abf2c07e54ded1521587ba0
  KVM: MMU: cleanup FNAME(invlpg)

moved it inside the loop:  right after mmu_page_zap_pte().

3.
  commit f57f2ef58f6703e6df70ed52a198920cb3e8edba
  KVM: MMU: fast prefetch spte on invlpg path

inserted update_pte() after it.

In addition, the caller, kvm_mmu_invlpg(), still does flush.

This patch simplifies the logic and removes this redundancy.
