Subject: [PATCH 4/6] x86/trace: Reduce stack usage from HVMTRACE_ND()
Date: Fri, 17 Sep 2021 09:45:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210917084559.22673-5-andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210917084559.22673-1-andrew.cooper3@citrix.com>

It is pointless to write all 6 entries and only consume the useful subset.
bloat-o-meter shows quite how obscene the overhead is in vmx_vmexit_handler(),
weighing in at 11% of the function arranging unread zeroes on the stack, and
8% for svm_vmexit_handler().

Normally I wouldn't recommend patches like this for backport, but
{vmx,svm}_vmexit_handler() are fastpaths and this is a *lot* of I-cache lines
dropped...
