[PATCH 0/9] KVM backports to 5.10

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

 



This patch series backports a few VM preemption_status, steal_time and
PV TLB flushing fixes to 5.10 stable kernel.

Most of the changes backport cleanly except i had to work around a few
because of missing support/APIs in 5.10 kernel. I have captured those in
the changelog as well in the individual patches.

Earlier patch series that i'm resending for stable.

Changelog
- Use mark_page_dirty_in_slot api without kvm argument (KVM: x86: Fix
  recording of guest steal time / preempted status)
- Avoid checking for xen_msr and SEV-ES conditions (KVM: x86:
  do not set st->preempted when going back to user space)
- Use VCPU_STAT macro to expose preemption_reported and
  preemption_other fields (KVM: x86: do not report a vCPU as preempted
  outside instruction boundaries)
