Ugh, right. Hrm. Duh, I just didn't go far enough. A straight XCHG is silly.
Except for the access-tracking mess, KVM wants to clear a single bit. Writing
the entire thing and potentially clobbering bits is wasteful and unnecessarily
dangerous. And the access-tracking code already needs special handling.
We can just simplify this all by adding a helper to clear a single bit (and
maybe even use clear_bit() and __clear_bit() if we save the bit number for the
W/A/D bits and not just the mask). And if it weren't for EPT (different A/D
locations), we could even use static asserts to restrict the usage to the W/A/D
bits :-/ Oh well.
E.g. this
static inline void kvm_tdp_mmu_clear_spte_bit(struct tdp_iter *iter, u64 mask)
{
if (kvm_tdp_mmu_spte_has_volatile_bits(iter->old_spte, iter->level))
atomic64_and(~mask, (atomic64_t *)rcu_dereference(iter->sptep));
else
__kvm_tdp_mmu_write_spte(iter->sptep, iter->old_spte & ~mask);
}
yields another untested patch:
