Subject: [PATCH 0/3] kvmppc: optimize path run on every exit
Date: Fri, 10 Oct 2008 10:59:29 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1223636372-8946-1-git-send-email-ehrhardt@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

From: Christian Ehrhardt <ehrhardt@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

A small patch series of optimizations out of our discussions and my
experiments this week.
All patches improve the generic path executed for every exit we take,
therefore even a littel improvement can help a lot.

I would be happy if we could apply those soon. I'll continue looking into the
TLB stuff eating ~30% of our time. But since that might take a while I would be
happy if these three patches could be applied now (and relieve me, by not
having to keep them in sync).

Comments welcome, especially since exits still feel too long (current
assumption cache or tlb issues). See my other mails about exit timing on
kvm-ppc@vger.kernel.org
