Subject: Re: [PATCH] x86,kvm: move qemu/guest FPU switching out to vcpu_run
2017-11-14 13:12 GMT+08:00 Rik van Riel <riel@...hat.com>:
> Currently, every time a VCPU is scheduled out, the host kernel will
> first save the guest FPU/xstate context, then load the qemu userspace
> FPU context, only to then immediately save the qemu userspace FPU
> context back to memory. When scheduling in a VCPU, the same extraneous
> FPU loads and saves are done.
>
> This could be avoided by moving from a model where the guest FPU is
> loaded and stored with preemption disabled, to a model where the
> qemu userspace FPU is swapped out for the guest FPU context for
> the duration of the KVM_RUN ioctl.
>
> This is done under the VCPU mutex, which is also taken when other
> tasks inspect the VCPU FPU context, so the code should already be
> safe for this change. That should come as no surprise, given that
> s390 already has this optimization.
>
> No performance changes were detected in quick ping-pong tests on
