[RFC PATCH 3/8] kvm: pfncache: enlighten about gmem
From: Patrick Roy
Date: Tue Jul 09 2024 - 09:22:24 EST
KVM uses gfn_to_pfn_caches to cache translations from gfn all the way to
the pfn (for example, kvm-clock caches the page storing the page used
for guest/host communication this way). Unlike the gfn_to_hva_cache,
where no equivalent caching semantics were possible to gmem-backed gfns
(see also 858e8068a750 ("kvm: pfncache: enlighten about gmem")), here it
is possible to simply cache the pfn returned by `kvm_gmem_get_pfn`.
Additionally, gfn_to_pfn_caches now invalidate whenever a cached gfn's
attributes are flipped from shared to private (or vice-versa).
