I assume the idea would be to let arch code do single-page invalidations of stage-2 entries for each gfn? Unless I'm having a brain fart, x86 can't make use of that functionality. Intel doesn't provide any way to do targeted invalidation of stage-2 mappings. AMD provides an instruction to do broadcast invalidations, but it takes a virtual address, i.e. a stage-1 address. I can't tell if it's a host virtual address or a guest virtual address, but it's a moot point because KVM doen't have the guest virtual address, and if it's a host virtual address, there would need to be valid mappings in the host page tables for it to work, which KVM can't guarantee. _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
