[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [Xen-devel] [PATCH 5/9] x86/vvmx: Make updating shadow EPTP value more efficient
At the moment, the shadow EPTP value is written unconditionally in
ept_handle_violation().
Instead, write the value on vmentry to the guest; but only write it if
the value needs updating.
To detect this, add a flag to the nestedvcpu struct, stale_np2m, to
indicate when such an action is necessary. Set it when the nested p2m
changes or when the np2m is flushed by an IPI, and clear it when we
write the new value.
Since an IPI invalidating the p2m may happen between
nvmx_switch_guest() and vmx_vmenter, but we can't perform the vmwrite
with interrupts disabled, check the flag just before entering the
guest and restart the vmentry if it's set.

- Merge patches 6, 7, and 14 ("x86/np2m: add stale_np2m flag",
"x86/vvmx: restart nested vmentry in case of stale_np2m", and
"x86/vvmx: remove EPTP write from ept_handle_violation()")
- Write to stale_np2m before the vmwrite to avoid a race
