Subject: [PATCH 0/3] KVM: MMU: fix kvm_is_mmio_pfn()
Date: Fri, 27 Oct 2017 10:25:21 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171027022524.22589-1-haozhong.zhang@intel.com> (raw)
[I just copy the commit message from patch 3]
By default, KVM treats a reserved page as for MMIO purpose, and maps
it to guest with UC memory type. However, some reserved pages are not
for MMIO, such as pages of DAX device (e.g., /dev/daxX.Y). Mapping
them with UC memory type will harm the performance. In order to
exclude those cases, we check the host cache mode in addition and only
treat UC/UC- pages as MMIO.
