Subject: [PATCH v7 10/11] KVM: MMU: collapse TLB flushes when zap all pages
Date: Thu, 23 May 2013 03:55:59 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1369252560-11611-11-git-send-email-xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1369252560-11611-1-git-send-email-xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

kvm_zap_obsolete_pages uses lock-break technique to zap pages,
it will flush tlb every time when it does lock-break

We can reload mmu on all vcpus after updating the generation
number so that the obsolete pages are not used on any vcpus,
after that we do not need to flush tlb when obsolete pages
are zapped

Note: kvm_mmu_commit_zap_page is still needed before free
the pages since other vcpus may be doing locklessly shadow
page walking
