Subject: [PATCH v2 0/9] KVM: x86: Clean up MSR_IA32_APICBASE_BASE code
Date: Fri, 1 Nov 2024 11:35:46 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241101183555.1794700-1-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
Clean up code related to setting and getting MSR_IA32_APICBASE_BASE.
E.g. it's absurdly difficult to tease out that kvm_set_apic_base() exists
purely to avoid an extra call to kvm_recalculate_apic_map() (which may or
may not be worth the code, but whatever).
Simiarly, it's quite difficult to see that kvm_lapic_set_base() doesn't
do anything useful if the incoming MSR value is the same as the current
value.
v2:
- Collect reviews. [Kai, Paolo]
- Add a comment in kvm_lapic_reset() to explain its usage of the inner
__kvm_apic_set_base() helper. [Paolo]
- Unpack "struct msr_data" before calling kvm_apic_set_base(), e.g. so
that __set_sregs_common() doesn't half-fill a structure and rely on
kvm_apic_set_base() to ignore "index". [Kai]
- Tack on a patch to short circuit all of kvm_apic_set_base() when the
MSR isn't changing, to avoid the rare slow path of triggering an APIC
map recalc due to some other task marking the map dirty.

KVM: x86: Short-circuit all kvm_lapic_set_base() if MSR value isn't
changing
KVM: x86: Drop superfluous kvm_lapic_set_base() call when setting APIC
state
KVM: x86: Get vcpu->arch.apic_base directly and drop
kvm_get_apic_base()
KVM: x86: Inline kvm_get_apic_mode() in lapic.h
KVM: x86: Move kvm_set_apic_base() implementation to lapic.c (from
x86.c)
KVM: x86: Rename APIC base setters to better capture their
relationship
KVM: x86: Make kvm_recalculate_apic_map() local to lapic.c
KVM: x86: Unpack msr_data structure prior to calling
kvm_apic_set_base()
KVM: x86: Short-circuit all of kvm_apic_set_base() if MSR value is
unchanged
