This restricts hva handling in mmu code and makes it easier to extend
kvm_handle_hva() so that it can treat a range of addresses later in this
patch series.

1.7.5.4
When guest's memory is backed by THP pages, MMU notifier needs to call
kvm_unmap_hva(), which in turn leads to kvm_handle_hva(), in a loop to
invalidate a range of pages which constitute one huge page:
for each guest page
for each memslot
if page is in memslot
unmap using rmap
This means although every page in that range is expected to be found in
the same memslot, we are forced to check unrelated memslots many times.
If the guest has more memslots, the situation will become worse.
This patch, together with the following patch, solves this problem by
introducing kvm_handle_hva_range() which makes the loop look like this:
for each memslot
for each guest page in memslot
unmap using rmap
In this new processing, the actual work is converted to the loop over
rmap array which is much more cache friendly than before.

1.7.5.4
When we tested KVM under memory pressure, with THP enabled on the host,
we noticed that MMU notifier took a long time to invalidate huge pages.
Since the invalidation was done with mmu_lock held, it not only wasted
the CPU but also made the host harder to respond.
This patch mitigates this by using kvm_handle_hva_range().
On our x86 host, with a minimum configuration for the guest, the
invalidation became 40% faster on average and the worst case was also
improved to the same degree.

Something wrong may happen when hva < slot->userspace_addr.
I will fix this after I get some feedback for other parts.

First you convert it, then you check if the conversion worked? Let's
make is a straightforward check-then-convert (or check-and-convert).

Should be named hva_to_gfn_memslot(), like the below, to emphasise it

Moreover, if the pages are in no slot (munmap of some non-guest memory),
then we're iterating over all those pages for no purpose.

Potential for improvement: don't do 512 iterations on same large page.
Something like
if ((gfn ^ prev_gfn) & mask(level))
ret |= handler(...)
with clever selection of the first prev_gfn so it always matches (~gfn
maybe).

Yes, I will follow your advice: check-then-convert (or check-and-convert).

Really nice.
I'm sure that will make this much faster!
Thanks,

I thought up a better solution:
1. Separate rmap_pde from lpage_info->write_count and
make this a simple array. (I once tried this.)
2. Use gfn_to_index() and loop over rmap array:
...
/* intersection check */
start = max(start, memslot->userspace_addr);
end = min(end, memslot->userspace_addr +
(memslot->npages << PAGE_SHIFT));
if (start > end)
continue;
/* hva to gfn conversion */
gfn_start = hva_to_gfn_memslot(start);
gfn_end = hva_to_gfn_memslot(end);
/* main part */
for each level {
rmapp = __gfn_to_rmap(gfn_start, level, memslot);
for (idx = gfn_to_index(gfn_start, memslot->base_gfn, level);
idx < gfn_to_index(gfn_end, memslot->base_gfn, level); idx++) {
...
/* loop over rmap array */
ret |= handler(kvm, rmapp + idx, data);
}
}
Thanks,

This has the potential to increase cache misses, but I don't think it's
a killer. The separation can simplify other things as well.

Probably want idx <= gfn_to_index(gfn_end-1, ...) otherwise we fail on
small slots.

I should have read this before sending v2...

Yes, I think so too.
IIRC, write_count and rmap_pde are not used together so often.

I was thinking the same thing when making v2.
But I will check the boundary condition again.
(mmu_notifier + memslot + lpage + rmap...) * alignment...
Very confusing.
