Actually, I had such idea before. But user space should check whether hv tlb flush is exposed to VM before enabling direct tlb flush. If no, user space should not direct tlb flush for guest since Hyper-V will do more check for each hypercall from nested VM with enabling the feauter.. --- Best regards Tianyu Lan
