Subject: [PATCH V3 02/12] KVM: X86/MMU: Add using_local_root_page()
Date: Sat, 21 May 2022 21:16:50 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220521131700.3661-3-jiangshanlai@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220521131700.3661-1-jiangshanlai@gmail.com>
From: Lai Jiangshan <jiangshan.ljs@antgroup.com>
In some cases, local root pages are used for MMU. It is often using
to_shadow_page(mmu->root.hpa) to check if local root pages are used.
Add using_local_root_page() to directly check if local root pages are
used or needed to be used even mmu->root.hpa is not set.
Prepare for making to_shadow_page(mmu->root.hpa) returns non-NULL via
using local shadow [root] pages.

+ * shadow nested NPT for 32bit L1 hypervisor in 64bit host (shadow paging)
