[PATCH 4/7] KVM: Introduce KVM_HYPERV_SET_TLB_FLUSH_INHIBIT

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

 



Introduce a new ioctl to control whether remote flushing via Hyper-V
hyper-calls should be allowed on a vCPU. When the tlb_flush_inhibit bit is
set, vCPUs attempting to flush the TLB of the inhibitied vCPU will be
suspended until the bit is clearded.
