[PATCH] KVM: VMX: call invvpid only when EPT is disabled
From: Davidlohr Bueso
Date: Wed Mar 14 2012 - 21:44:48 EST
From: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@xxxxxxx>
With EPT enabled it is not required to explicitly run invvpid to invalidate tagged TLB entries, as
KVM does not force vm-exits for cr3 writes and invlpg. Run invvpid only when these instructions
are emulated and shadow pages are used.
