Subject: [PATCH v2 00/16] KVM: MMU: fast page fault
Date: Fri, 13 Apr 2012 18:05:29 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F87FA69.5060106@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
Thanks for Avi and Marcelo's review, i have simplified the whole things
in this version:
- it only fix the page fault with PFEC.P = 1 && PFEC.W = 0 that means
unlock set_spte path can be dropped.
- it only fixes the page fault caused by dirty-log
In this version, all the information we need is from spte, the
SPTE_ALLOW_WRITE bit and SPTE_WRITE_PROTECT bit:
- SPTE_ALLOW_WRITE is set if the gpte is writable and the pfn pointed
by the spte is writable on host.
- SPTE_WRITE_PROTECT is set if the spte is write-protected by shadow
page table protection.
All these bits can be protected by cmpxchg, now, all the things is fairly
simple than before. :)
Performance test:
autotest migration:
(Host: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5690 @ 3.47GHz * 12 + 32G)
