Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] KVM: x86: count actual tlb flushes
Date: Thu, 18 Sep 2014 12:38:36 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1411058317-23646-2-git-send-email-liangchen.linux@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1411058317-23646-1-git-send-email-liangchen.linux@gmail.com>
From: Radim Krčmář <rkrcmar@redhat.com>
- we count KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH requests, not actual flushes
(KVM can have multiple requests for one flush)
- flushes from kvm_flush_remote_tlbs aren't counted
- it's easy to make a direct request by mistake
Solve these by postponing the counting to kvm_check_request().
