From 5a4f55cde81f1633cb7ae9f0963b722e47acdc36 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eugene Korenevsky Date: Sun, 29 Mar 2015 23:56:12 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: cache maxphyaddr CPUID leaf in struct kvm_vcpu cpuid_maxphyaddr(), which performs lot of memory accesses is called extensively across KVM, especially in nVMX code. This patch adds a cached value of maxphyaddr to vcpu.arch to reduce the pressure onto CPU cache and simplify the code of cpuid_maxphyaddr() callers. The cached value is initialized in kvm_arch_vcpu_init() and reloaded every time CPUID is updated by usermode. It is obvious that these reloads occur infrequently.
