[RFC PATCH 41/42] KVM: VMX: Implement ops .flush_remote_tlbs* in VMX when EPT is on

From: Yan Zhao
Date: Sat Dec 02 2023 - 05:05:37 EST


Add VMX implementation of ops of flush_remote_tlbs* in kvm_x86_ops when
enable_ept is on and CONFIG_HYPERV is off.

Without ops flush_remote_tlbs* in VMX, kvm_flush_remote_tlbs*() just makes
all cpus request KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH after finding the two ops are
non-present.
So, by also making all cpu requests KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH in ops
flush_remote_tlbs* in VMX, no functional changes should be introduced.

The two ops allow vendor code (e.g. VMX) to control when to notify IOMMU
to flush TLBs. This is useful for contidions when sequence to flush CPU
TLBs and IOTLBs is important.
