[RFC v2 PATCH 06/21] KVM: Add facility to run guests on slave CPUs

Tomoki Sekiyama
2012-09-06T11:27:50Z

Add path to migrate execution of vcpu_enter_guest to a slave CPU when
vcpu->arch.slave_cpu is set.

After moving to the slave CPU, it goes back to the online CPU when the
guest is exited by reasons that cannot be handled by the slave CPU only
(e.g. handling async page faults).

On migration, kvm_arch_vcpu_put_migrate is used to avoid using IPI to
clear loaded vmcs from the old CPU. Instead, this immediately clears
vmcs.
