The following patchset, based on Marcelo's original mmu scaling patch, allows the kvm guest walker to run concurrently. Shadow pagetable manipulation is still single threaded.
Handling pte writes is similar to an early version of the patchset: the page is derived from the guest pte being written. Unlike the original version, we only "guess" the gfn (based on the current paging mode), and if we are wrong, we just throw the page away. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
