[PATCH v3 02/14] KVM: s390: pv: avoid stall notifications for some UVCs
From: Claudio Imbrenda <imbrenda@linux.ibm.com>
Date: 2021-08-04 15:41:07
Also in:
linux-s390, lkml
Subsystem:
kernel virtual machine for s390 (kvm/s390), s390 architecture, the rest · Maintainers:
Christian Borntraeger, Janosch Frank, Claudio Imbrenda, Heiko Carstens, Vasily Gorbik, Alexander Gordeev, Linus Torvalds
Improve make_secure_pte to avoid stalls when the system is heavily
overcommitted. This was especially problematic in kvm_s390_pv_unpack,
because of the loop over all pages that needed unpacking.
Also fix kvm_s390_pv_init_vm to avoid stalls when the system is heavily
overcommitted.
Signed-off-by: Claudio Imbrenda <imbrenda@linux.ibm.com>
Fixes: 214d9bbcd3a672 ("s390/mm: provide memory management functions for protected KVM guests")
