Subject: [PATCH v4 00/13] KVM: x86/mmu: Optimize clear dirty log
Date: Tue, 21 Mar 2023 15:00:08 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230321220021.2119033-1-seanjc@google.com> (raw)

This is a massaged version of Vipin's series to optimize clearing dirty
state in the TDP MMU.  It's basically the same as v3, just spread out over
more patches.  The only meaningful difference in the end is that
clear_dirty_gfn_range() also gets similar treatment in handling Dirty vs.
Writable logic.

Vipin, I'm still planning on applying this for 6.4, but the changes ended
up being a wee bit bigger than I'm comfortable making on the fly, thus the
formal posting.

v4:
- Split patches into more fine-grained chunks.
- Massage changelogs as needed.
- Collect reviews. [David]

v3:
- https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230211014626.3659152-1-vipinsh@google.com
- Tried to do better job at writing commit messages.
- Made kvm_tdp_mmu_clear_spte_bits() similar to the kvm_tdp_mmu_write_spte().
- clear_dirty_pt_masked() evaluates mask for the bit to be cleared outside the
  loop and use that for all of the SPTEs instead of calculating for each SPTE.
- Some naming changes based on the feedbacks.
- Split out the dead code clean from the optimization code.

v2: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230203192822.106773-1-vipinsh@google.com/
- Clear dirty log and age gfn range does not go through
  handle_changed_spte, they handle their SPTE changes locally to improve
  their speed.
- Clear only specific bits atomically when updating SPTEs in clearing
  dirty log and aging gfn range functions.
- Removed tdp_mmu_set_spte_no_[acc_track|dirty_log] APIs.
- Converged all handle_changed_spte related functions to one place.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230125213857.824959-1-vipinsh@google.com

Vipin Sharma (13):
  KVM: x86/mmu: Add a helper function to check if an SPTE needs atomic
    write
