| |
It seems like you all are busy now, so I've made this patch set so that mechanical and trivial changes come before.
V2->V3: Patch 01: Rebased and moved here. Updated stale comments. We may also want to use a union, inside the struct, to eliminate casting to (u64 *) type when spte is in the head in the future. Patch 02-05: No change. About patch 03: There was a comment on the usage of braces for a single line else-if statement from Xiao. As I answered, checkpatch did not complain about this, and when the corresponding if block has multiple lines, some developers prefer/recommend this style. Feel free to modify it if you don't like it. Patch 06: Changed WARN_ON to BUG_ON as Marcelo suggested. Patch 07: Removed unnecessary zero-initialization of sp->parent_ptes as Xiao suggested.
I think these seven patches are ready for inclusion.
Patch 08-10: No change now, though there were a few comments. This patch set is not intended to optimize anything, so these patches try to keep the way mark_unsync() gets called as much as possible: the only changes are when this gets called for the new parent_pte and when mmu_page_add_parent_pte() gets called.
For these three, I'm not sure what we should do now, still RFC? We can also consider other approaches, e.g. moving link_shadow_page() in the kvm_get_mmu_page() as Paolo suggested before.
