Prev: [PATCH v2 1/6] KVM: MMU: fix forgot reserved bits check in speculative path
Next: [PATCH v2 4/6] KVM: MMU: don't atomicly set spte if it's not present
From: Xiao Guangrong on 15 Jul 2010 23:40 Sometimes, atomically set spte is not needed, this patch call __xchg_spte() more smartly Note: if the old mapping's access bit is already set, we no need atomic operation since the access bit is not lost Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong(a)cn.fujitsu.com> --- arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c | 9 +++++++-- 1 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c b/arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c index fb3ae54..71e9268 100644 --- a/arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c +++ b/arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c @@ -682,9 +682,14 @@ static void rmap_remove(struct kvm *kvm, u64 *spte) static void set_spte_track_bits(u64 *sptep, u64 new_spte) { pfn_t pfn; - u64 old_spte; + u64 old_spte = *sptep; + + if (!shadow_accessed_mask || !is_shadow_present_pte(old_spte) || + old_spte & shadow_accessed_mask) { + __set_spte(sptep, new_spte); + } else + old_spte = __xchg_spte(sptep, new_spte); - old_spte = __xchg_spte(sptep, new_spte); if (!is_rmap_spte(old_spte)) return; pfn = spte_to_pfn(old_spte); -- 1.6.1.2 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ |
