For shared processor guests (e.g., KVM), add an idle polling mode rather than immediately returning to the hypervisor when the guest CPU goes idle. Test setup is a 2 socket POWER9 with 4 guests running, each with vCPUs equal to 1/2 of real of CPUs. Saturated each guest with tbench. Using polling idle gives about 1.4x throughput. Kernel compile speed was not changed significantly. Signed-off-by: NNicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
