[PATCH v15 0/7] MTE support for KVM guest |
Date: |
Mon, 14 Jun 2021 10:05:18 +0100 |
This series adds support for using the Arm Memory Tagging Extensions
(MTE) in a KVM guest.
I realise there are still open questions[1] around the performance of
this series (the 'big lock', tag_sync_lock, introduced in the first
patch). But there should be no impact on non-MTE workloads and until we
get real MTE-enabled hardware it's hard to know whether there is a need
for something more sophisticated or not. Peter Collingbourne's patch[3]
to clear the tags at page allocation time should hide more of the impact
for non-VM cases. So the remaining concern is around VM startup which
could be effectively serialised through the lock.
Changes since v14[2]:
* Dropped "Handle MTE tags zeroing" patch in favour of Peter's similar
patch[3] (now in arm64 tree).
* Improved documentation following Catalin's review.
