Linux kernel source tree

The existing TDP MMU methods to handle dirty logging are vcpu-agnostic since they can be driven by MMU notifiers and other non-vcpu-specific events in addition to page faults. However this means that the TDP MMU is not benefiting from the new vcpu->last_used_slot. Fix that by introducing a tdp_mmu_map_set_spte_atomic() which is only called during a TDP page fault and has access to the kvm_vcpu for fast slot lookups. This improves "Populate memory time" in dirty_log_perf_test by 5%: Command | Before | After ------------------------------- | ---------------- | ------------- ./dirty_log_perf_test -v64 -x64 | 5.472321072s | 5.169832886s Signed-off-by: David Matlack <dmatlack@google.com> Message-Id: <20210804222844.1419481-5-dmatlack@google.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
