Subject: paravirt_ops: add flush_tlb_others paravirt_op
From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xxxxxxxx>
This patch adds a pv_op for flush_tlb_others. Linux running on native
hardware uses cross-CPU IPIs to flush the TLB on any CPU which may have a
particular mm's pagetable entries cached in its TLB. This is inefficient in a
paravirtualized environment, since the hypervisor knows which real CPUs
actually contain cached mappings, which may be a small subset of a guest's
VCPUs.
