Fist patch optimizes arm64 save/restore, we only do so on Guest access. hackbench and several lmbench tests show anywhere from 30% to above 50% optimzation achieved. In second patch 32-bit handler is updated to keep exit handling consistent with 64-bit code. Changes since v1: - Addressed Marcs comments - Verified optimization improvements with lmbench and hackbench, updated commit message Mario Smarduch (2): Optimize arm64 skip 30-50% vfp/simd save/restore on exits keep arm vfp/simd exit handling in sync with arm64 arch/arm/kvm/interrupts.S | 12 +++++----- arch/arm64/include/asm/kvm_arm.h | 5 ++++- arch/arm64/kvm/hyp.S | 46 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- 3 files changed, 54 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) -- 1.7.9.5 From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Mario Smarduch Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] arm/arm64: KVM: Optimize arm64 fp/simd, saves 30-50% on exits Date: Tue, 16 Jun 2015 14:50:50 -0700 Message-ID: <1434491452-19177-1-git-send-email-m.smarduch@samsung.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain Return-path: Sender: kvm-owner@vger.kernel.org To: kvmarm@lists.cs.columbia.edu, marc.zyngier@arm.com, christoffer.dall@linaro.org Cc: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org, kvm@vger.kernel.org, catalin.marinas@arm.com, will.deacon@arm.com, Mario Smarduch List-Id: kvmarm@lists.cs.columbia.edu Currently we save/restore fp/simd on each exit.
