[RFC PATCH v2 07/23] KVM: x86/mmu: Disallow page merging (huge page adjustment) for mirror root

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: "Edgecombe, Rick P" <rick.p.edgecombe@xxxxxxxxx>

Disallow page merging (huge page adjustment) for the mirror root by
utilizing disallowed_hugepage_adjust().

Make the mirror root check asymmetric with NX huge pages and not to litter
the generic MMU code:

Invoke disallowed_hugepage_adjust() in kvm_tdp_mmu_map() when necessary,
specifically when KVM has mirrored TDP or the NX huge page workaround is
enabled.

Check and reduce the goal_level of a fault internally in
disallowed_hugepage_adjust() when the fault is for a mirror root and
there's a shadow present non-leaf entry at the original goal_level.

RFC v2:
- Check is_mirror_sp() in disallowed_hugepage_adjust() instead of passing
  in an is_mirror arg. (Rick)
- Check kvm_has_mirrored_tdp() in kvm_tdp_mmu_map() to determine whether
  to invoke disallowed_hugepage_adjust(). (Rick)

RFC v1:
