We implement a simple VMID allocator for Guests/VMs which: 1. Detects number of VMID bits at boot-time 2. Uses atomic number to track VMID version and increments VMID version whenever we run-out of VMIDs 3. Flushes Guest TLBs on all host CPUs whenever we run-out of VMIDs 4. Force updates HW Stage2 VMID for each Guest VCPU whenever VMID changes using VCPU request KVM_REQ_UPDATE_HGATP Signed-off-by: Anup Patel <anup.patel@wdc.com> Acked-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Alexander Graf <graf@amazon.com> Acked-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmerdabbelt@google.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
