      KVM: X86: introduce invalidate_gpa argument to tlb flush · c2ba05cc
      Wanpeng Li 提交于
      Introduce a new bool invalidate_gpa argument to kvm_x86_ops->tlb_flush,
      it will be used by later patches to just flush guest tlb.
      
      For VMX, this will use INVVPID instead of INVEPT, which will invalidate
      combined mappings while keeping guest-physical mappings.

      KVM: X86: use paravirtualized TLB Shootdown · 858a43aa
      Wanpeng Li 提交于
      Remote TLB flush does a busy wait which is fine in bare-metal
      scenario. But with-in the guest, the vcpus might have been pre-empted or
      blocked. In this scenario, the initator vcpu would end up busy-waiting
      for a long amount of time; it also consumes CPU unnecessarily to wake
      up the target of the shootdown.
      
      This patch set adds support for KVM's new paravirtualized TLB flush;
      remote TLB flush does not wait for vcpus that are sleeping, instead
      KVM will flush the TLB as soon as the vCPU starts running again.
      
      The improvement is clearly visible when the host is overcommitted; in this
      case, the PV TLB flush (in addition to avoiding the wait on the main CPU)
      prevents preempted vCPUs from stealing precious execution time from the
      running ones.
      
      Testing on a Xeon Gold 6142 2.6GHz 2 sockets, 32 cores, 64 threads,
      so 64 pCPUs, and each VM is 64 vCPUs.

      KVM: X86: Add KVM_VCPU_PREEMPTED · fa55eedd
      Wanpeng Li 提交于
      The next patch will add another bit to the preempted field in
      kvm_steal_time.  Define a constant for bit 0 (the only one that is
      currently used).
