Subject: [PATCH 0/3] KVM: x86: hyperv: PV IPI support for Windows guests
Date: Fri, 22 Jun 2018 16:56:13 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180622145616.5851-1-vkuznets@redhat.com> (raw)

Using hypercall for sending IPIs is faster because this allows to specify
any number of vCPUs (even > 64 with sparse CPU set), the whole procedure
will take only one VMEXIT.

Same as PV TLB flush, this allows Windows guests having > 64 vCPUs to boot
on KVM when Hyper-V extensions are enabled.
