Subject: [PATCH v2 0/8] Simplify and fix fetch()
Date: Mon, 12 Jul 2010 14:30:46 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1278934254-5598-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> (raw)
fetch() has become a monster, with a zillion continues, breaks, and gotos.
Simplify it before Xiao adds even more.
Also fix the gpte validation race.
Avi Kivity (8):
KVM: MMU: Add link_shadow_page() helper
KVM: MMU: Use __set_spte to link shadow pages
KVM: MMU: Add drop_large_spte() helper
v2: s/drop_spte_if_large/drop_large_spte/g
KVM: MMU: Add validate_direct_spte() helper
KVM: MMU: Add validate_indirect_spte() helper
v2: add comments
make validate_indirect_spte() look at spte in its own level, not one
below (but adjust caller so no net effect)
KVM: MMU: Simplify spte fetch() function
v2: add comments
update 'sptep' and 'level' for last level
KVM: MMU: Validate all gptes during fetch, not just those used for
new pages
v2: validate top-level gpte (in root page)
KVM: MMU: Eliminate redundant temporaries in FNAME(fetch)
v2: new patch
