![]() - Rip out the half-baked support for using gfn_to_pfn caches to manage pages that are "mapped" into guests via physical addresses. - Add support for using gfn_to_pfn caches with only a host virtual address, i.e. to bypass the "gfn" stage of the cache. The primary use case is overlay pages, where the guest may change the gfn used to reference the overlay page, but the backing hva+pfn remains the same. - Add an ioctl() to allow mapping Xen's shared_info page using an hva instead of a gpa, so that userspace doesn't need to reconfigure and invalidate the cache/mapping if the guest changes the gpa (but userspace keeps the resolved hva the same). - When possible, use a single host TSC value when computing the deadline for Xen timers in order to improve the accuracy of the timer emulation. - Inject pending upcall events when the vCPU software-enables its APIC to fix a bug where an upcall can be lost (and to follow Xen's behavior). - Fall back to the slow path instead of warning if "fast" IRQ delivery of Xen events fails, e.g. if the guest has aliased xAPIC IDs. - Extend gfn_to_pfn_cache's mutex to cover (de)activation (in addition to refresh), and drop a now-redundant acquisition of xen_lock (that was protecting the shared_info cache) to fix a deadlock due to recursively acquiring xen_lock. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEKTobbabEP7vbhhN9OlYIJqCjN/0FAmXrblYACgkQOlYIJqCj N/3K4Q/+KZ8lrnNXvdHNCQdosA5DDXpqUcRzhlTUp82fncpdJ0LqrSMzMots2Eh9 KC0jSPo8EkivF+Epug0+bpQBEaLXzTWhRcS1grePCDz2lBnxoHFSWjvaK2p14KlC LvxCJZjxyfLKHwKHpSndvO9hVFElCY3mvvE9KRcKeQAmrz1cz+DDMKelo1MuV8D+ GfymhYc+UXpY41+6hQdznx+WoGoXKRameo3iGYuBoJjvKOyl4Wxkx9WSXIxxxuqG kHxjiWTR/jF1ITJl6PeMrFcGl3cuGKM/UfTOM6W2h6Wi3mhLpXveoVLnqR1kipIj btSzSVHL7C4WTPwOcyhwPzap+dJmm31c6N0uPScT7r9yhs+q5BDj26vcVcyPZUHo efIwmsnO2eQvuw+f8C6QqWCPaxvw46N0zxzwgc5uA3jvAC93y0l4v+xlAQsC0wzV 0+BwU00cutH/3t3c/WPD5QcmRLH726VoFuTlaDufpoMU7gBVJ8rzjcusxR+5BKT+ GJcAgZxZhEgvnzmTKd4Ec/mt+xZ2Erd+kV3MKCHvDPyj8jqy8FQ4DAWKGBR+h3WR rqAs2k8NPHyh3i1a3FL1opmxEGsRS+Cnc6Bi77cj9DxTr22JkgDJEuFR+Ues1z6/ SpE889kt3w5zTo34+lNxNPlIKmO0ICwwhDL6pxJTWU7iWQnKypU= =GliW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'kvm-x86-xen-6.9' of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux into HEAD KVM Xen and pfncache changes for 6.9: - Rip out the half-baked support for using gfn_to_pfn caches to manage pages that are "mapped" into guests via physical addresses. - Add support for using gfn_to_pfn caches with only a host virtual address, i.e. to bypass the "gfn" stage of the cache.
