Subject: [PATCH 5/5] svm: implement INVLPG part of DecodeAssist
Date: Fri, 15 Apr 2011 14:24:28 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4DA838FC.5010606@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4DA83719.5080106@amd.com>
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 292 bytes --]
Newer SVM implementations (Bulldozer) give the desired address on
a INVLPG intercept explicitly in the EXITINFO1 field of the VMCB.
Use this address to avoid a costly instruction fetch and deocde
cycle.
Only useful with shadow paging.
