[PATCH v2] x86/hvm: Remove callback from paging->flush_tlb() hook
Posted by Andrew Cooper 2 years, 5 months ago
TLB flushing is a hotpath, and function pointer calls are
expensive (especially under repoline) for what amounts to an identity
transform on the data.  Just pass the vcpu_bitmap bitmap directly.

As we use NULL for all rather than none, introduce a flush_vcpu() helper to
avoid the risk of logical errors from opencoding the expression.  This also
means the viridian callers can avoid writing an all-ones bitmap for the
flushing logic to consume.

No functional change.

v2:
 * Also short-circuit the hvcall_flush_ex() HV_GENERIC_SET_ALL path.

The result even compiles smaller:

  $ ../scripts/bloat-o-meter xen-syms-before xen-syms-after
  add/remove: 0/2 grow/shrink: 0/3 up/down: 0/-125 (-125)
  Function                                     old     new   delta
  flush_tlb                                    207     205      -2
  always_flush                                   6       -      -6
  need_flush                                     9       -      -9
  do_hvm_op                                   2434    2418     -16
  shadow_flush_tlb                             628     536     -92

but this is very much not the point of the patch.

It would be rather more efficient in this case and probably others for
for_each_vcpu() to iterate over d->vcpu[] than follow the v->next_vcpu pointer
chain (better locality of access), and also because then the vCPU id is the
loop induction variable, not a value read from memory.
