Subject[PATCH v4 00/11] KVM: x86/mmu: Make tdp_mmu a read-only parameter
From
This is a variation of David's series to change tdp_mmu to a RO param[*].
The key difference is that instead of moving the TDP MMU page fault handler
to its own function, use static branches to make TDP MMU page faults (and
a few other paths) effectively branch free.

I'm not dead set against having a dedicated TDP MMU page fault handler, but
IMO it's not really better once the TDP MMU vs. shadow MMU is reduced to a
static branch, just different. The read vs. write mmu_lock is the most
visible ugliness, and that can be buried in helpers if we really want to
make the page fault handler easier on the eyes, e.g.

direct_page_fault_mmu_lock(vcpu);

if (is_page_fault_stale(vcpu, fault))
goto out_unlock;

if (is_tdp_mmu_enabled()) {
r = kvm_tdp_mmu_map(vcpu, fault);
} else {
r = make_mmu_pages_available(vcpu);
if (r)
goto out_unlock;

r = __direct_map(vcpu, fault);
}

out_unlock:
direct_page_fault_mmu_unlock(vcpu);

v4:
- Keep is_tdp_mmu_page() in patch 1.
- Collect reviews. [Isaku]
- Skip "make MMU pages available" for root allocations.
- Rework "is TDP MMU" checks to take advantage of read-only param.
- Use a static key to track TDP MMU enabling.
