Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] KVM: x86: Move PML page to common vcpu arch structure
Date: Mon, 15 Sep 2025 08:59:36 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250915085938.639049-3-nikunj@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250915085938.639049-1-nikunj@amd.com>
Move the PML page from VMX-specific vcpu_vmx structure to the common
kvm_vcpu_arch structure to share it between VMX and SVM implementations.
Update all VMX references accordingly, and simplify the
kvm_flush_pml_buffer() interface by removing the page parameter since it
can now access the page directly from the vcpu structure.
No functional change, restructuring to prepare for SVM PML support.
