Subject: [PATCH 23/25] KVM: x86: use kvm_read_guest_page for emulator accesses
Date: Mon, 9 Jun 2014 14:59:11 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1402318753-23362-24-git-send-email-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1402318753-23362-1-git-send-email-pbonzini@redhat.com>
Emulator accesses are always done a page at a time, either by the emulator
itself (for fetches) or because we need to query the MMU for address
translations. Speed up these accesses by using kvm_read_guest_page
and, in the case of fetches, by inlining kvm_read_guest_virt_helper and
dropping the loop around kvm_read_guest_page.
This final tweak saves 30-100 more clock cycles (4-10%), bringing the
count (as measured by kvm-unit-tests) down to 720-1100 clock cycles on
a Sandy Bridge Xeon host, compared to 2300-3200 before the whole series
and 925-1700 after the first two low-hanging fruit changes.
