Subject: [PATCH 7.1.y 7/8] KVM: x86/mmu: Use split "zap all fast" helpers when invalidating memslot
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2026 18:44:16 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260831224417.1903154-7-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260831224417.1903154-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>
[ Upstream commit db095727ff5739f4f46ee641ee6ef450032886db ]
Manually invoke the front half and back half of the "zap all fast" flow
when invalidating a memslot so that mmu_lock is acquired at function scope
in kvm_arch_flush_shadow_memslot(). This will allow putting more code
inside the critical section without having to take mmu_lock twice in quick
succession.
Opportunistically open code checking whether or not to do the fast zap, to
discourage removing the local "zap_all" in a future cleanup, i.e. to ensure
the SLOT_ZAP_ALL quirk is queried exactly once. Processing the front half
but not the back half of the fast zap (if SLOT_ZAP_ALL were disabled
concurrently) would result in KVM unnecessarily keeping invalid TDP MMU
roots until the VM is destroyed.
No functional change intended.
