From a25f7e1f8c1ff68213a63dada9d5e32dc1a0f587 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Avi Kivity Date: Mon, 30 Apr 2007 17:05:38 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: Reduce misfirings of the fork detector The kvm mmu tries to detects forks by looking for repeated writes to a page table. If it sees a fork, it unshadows the page table so the page table copying can proceed at native speed instead of being emulated. However, the detector also triggered on simple demand paging access patterns: a linear walk of memory would of course cause repeated writes to the same pagetable page, causing it to unshadow prematurely. Fix by resetting the fork detector if we detect a demand fault. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity --- Reading git-format-patch failed
