[PATCH v4 3/4] KVM: arm64: Align the VMID allocation with the arm64 ASID

Mon Nov 22 04:18:43 PST 2021


From: Julien Grall <julien.grall at arm.com>

At the moment, the VMID algorithm will send an SGI to all the
CPUs to force an exit and then broadcast a full TLB flush and
I-Cache invalidation.

This patch uses the new VMID allocator. The benefits are:
   - Aligns with arm64 ASID algorithm.
   - CPUs are not forced to exit at roll-over. Instead,
     the VMID will be marked reserved and context invalidation
     is broadcasted. This will reduce the IPIs traffic.
   - More flexible to add support for pinned KVM VMIDs in
     the future.
   
With the new algo, the code is now adapted:
    - The call to update_vmid() will be done with preemption
      disabled as the new algo requires to store information
      per-CPU.
