Changelog in v2: - rename kvm_mmu_invalid_mmio_spte to kvm_mmu_invalid_mmio_sptes - use kvm->memslots->generation as kvm global generation-number - fix comment and codestyle - init kvm generation close to mmio wrap-around value - keep kvm_mmu_zap_mmio_sptes The current way is holding hot mmu-lock and walking all shadow pages, this is not scale. This patchset tries to introduce a very simple and scale way to fast invalid all mmio sptes - it need not walk any shadow pages and hold any locks. The idea is simple: KVM maintains a global mmio invalid generation-number which is stored in kvm->memslots.generation and every mmio spte stores the current global generation-number into his available bits when it is created When KVM need zap all mmio sptes, it just simply increase the global generation-number. When guests do mmio access, KVM intercepts a MMIO #PF then it walks the shadow page table and get the mmio spte. If the generation-number on the spte does not equal the global generation-number, it will go to the normal #PF handler to update the mmio spte Since 19 bits are used to store generation-number on mmio spte, we zap all mmio sptes when the number is round Xiao Guangrong (6): KVM: MMU: retain more available bits on mmio spte KVM: MMU: store generation-number into mmio spte KVM: MMU: make return value of mmio page fault handler more readable KVM: MMU: fast invalid all mmio sptes KVM: MMU: add tracepoint for check_mmio_spte KVM: MMU: init kvm generation close to mmio wrap-around value arch/x86/include/asm/kvm_host.h | 3 +- arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c | 134 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- arch/x86/kvm/mmu.h | 17 +++++ arch/x86/kvm/mmutrace.h | 34 +++++++++- arch/x86/kvm/paging_tmpl.h | 10 ++- arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c | 12 +++- arch/x86/kvm/x86.c | 11 +++- virt/kvm/kvm_main.c | 6 ++ 8 files changed, 186 insertions(+), 41 deletions(-) -- 1.7.7.6 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
