Subject: [PATCH v8 10/15] KVM: xen: allow vcpu_info to be mapped by fixed HVA
Date: Tue, 21 Nov 2023 18:02:18 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231121180223.12484-11-paul@xen.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231121180223.12484-1-paul@xen.org>

From: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@amazon.com>

If the guest does not explicitly set the GPA of vcpu_info structure in
memory then, for guests with 32 vCPUs or fewer, the vcpu_info embedded
in the shared_info page may be used. As described in a previous commit,
the shared_info page is an overlay at a fixed HVA within the VMM, so in
this case it also more optimal to activate the vcpu_info cache with a
fixed HVA to avoid unnecessary invalidation if the guest memory layout
is modified.

+  If the KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG_SHARED_INFO_HVA flag is also set in the
