Subject: [PATCH 42/43] x86/mm/kaiser: Allow KAISER to be enabled/disabled at runtime
From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@...ux.intel.com>
The KAISER CR3 switches are expensive for many reasons. Not all systems
benefit from the protection provided by KAISER. Some of them can not
pay the high performance cost.
This patch adds a debugfs file. To disable KAISER, you do:
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/x86/kaiser-enabled
and to re-enable it, you can:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/x86/kaiser-enabled
This is a *minimal* implementation. There are certainly plenty of
optimizations that can be done on top of this by using ALTERNATIVES
among other things.
This does, however, completely remove all the KAISER-based CR3 writes.
This permits a paravirtualized system that can not tolerate CR3
writes to theoretically survive with CONFIG_KAISER=y, albeit with
/sys/kernel/debug/x86/kaiser-enabled=0.
