/*
When KVM needs to coalesce the existing normal page mappings into a block mapping, we currently follow the following steps successively: 1) invalidate the table entry in the PMD/PUD table 2) flush TLB by VMID 3) unmap the old sub-level tables 4) install the new block entry to the PMD/PUD table It will cost a long time to unmap the old page mappings in step 3, which means there will be a long period when the PMD/PUD table entry could be found invalid (step 1, 2, 3). So the other vcpus have a really big chance to trigger unnecessary translations if they access any page within the block and find the table entry invalid. So let's quickly install the block entry at first to ensure uninterrupted memory access of the other vcpus, and then unmap the page mappings after installation. This will reduce most of the time when the table entry is invalid, and avoid most of the unnecessary translation faults. After this patch the steps can be like: 1) invalidate the table entry in the PMD/PUD table 2) flush TLB by VMID 3) install the new block entry to the PMD/PUD table 4) unmap the old sub-level tables Signed-off-by: Yanan Wang <wangyanan55@huawei.com> --- arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/pgtable.c | 44 ++++++++++++++++++++++++------------ 1 file changed, 30 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-)
