Subject: [PATCH v2 20/29] KVM: x86: Add KVM_REQ_MMU_SYNC_ALL_ROOTS
Date: Thu, 8 Oct 2026 00:14:16 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261008001425.2458927-21-yosry@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261008001425.2458927-1-yosry@kernel.org>
Add a new x86 request to sync all roots, current and previous. This will
be used when syncing the shadow NPTs on nested VMRUN when an ASID flush
(or new ASID) is requested by L1, as all physical translations in all
roots should be sync'd (since shadow mappings are not tagged with an
ASID).
Refactor syncing all roots (currently only done by
kvm_vcpu_flush_tlb_guest()) to a helper, and use it to handle the
request.
Clear KVM_REQ_MMU_SYNC when handling KVM_REQ_MMU_SYNC_ALL_ROOTS as the
latter is a superset. Do not do so inside kvm_mmu_sync_all_roots(), to
avoid any subtle behavioral changes from kvm_vcpu_flush_tlb_guest()
clearing KVM_REQ_MMU_SYNC. It makes sense to always clear it when
syncing the MMU, but there might be weird dependencies on the sync only
happening before the actual vCPU run, and kvm_vcpu_flush_tlb_guest() is
called in other code paths than handling KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH_GUEST before
vCPU run.
No functional change intended.
