Subject: [PATCH v3 08/12] KVM: x86/mmu: Split kvm_mmu_zap_all_fast() into "front" and "back" halves
Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2026 15:26:03 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260630222607.497895-9-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260630222607.497895-1-seanjc@google.com>
Split kvm_mmu_zap_all_fast() into a "front half" and a "back half", where
the front half is everything that runs with mmu_lock held for write, and
the back half is the code that runs outside of mmu_lock. This will allow
putting more code inside kvm_arch_flush_shadow_memslot()'s critical section
without having to take mmu_lock twice in quick succession.
No functional change intended.
