x86/xen: Drop lazy mode from trace entries

2026-06-08T07:21:06+00:00

Drop the lazy mode (cpu or mmu) from the xen_mc_batch and xen_mc_issue trace entries. This is done in preparation of removing the xen_lazy_mode percpu variable. Signed-off-by: Juergen Gross Message-ID: <20260526150514.129330-2-jgross@suse.com>

x86/xen: Cleanup Xen related trace points

2026-06-08T07:20:12+00:00

Since dropping Xen-PV support for 32-bit, include/trace/events/xen.h contains several stale trace point definitions. Remove them. Signed-off-by: Juergen Gross Message-ID: <20260522152114.77319-3-jgross@suse.com>

x86/xen: move paravirt lazy code

2023-09-19T05:04:49+00:00

Only Xen is using the paravirt lazy mode code, so it can be moved to Xen specific sources. This allows to make some of the functions static or to merge them into their only call sites. While at it do a rename from "paravirt" to "xen" for all moved specifiers. No functional change.

x86/mm/tlb: Flush remote and local TLBs concurrently

2021-03-06T11:59:10+00:00

To improve TLB shootdown performance, flush the remote and local TLBs concurrently. Introduce flush_tlb_multi() that does so. Introduce paravirtual versions of flush_tlb_multi() for KVM, Xen and hyper-v (Xen and hyper-v are only compile-tested). While the updated smp infrastructure is capable of running a function on a single local core, it is not optimized for this case. The multiple function calls and the indirect branch introduce some overhead, and might make local TLB flushes slower than they were before the recent changes. Before calling the SMP infrastructure, check if only a local TLB flush is needed to restore the lost performance in this common case. This requires to check mm_cpumask() one more time, but unless this mask is updated very frequently, this should impact performance negatively.

x86/paravirt: Remove set_pte_at() pv-op

2020-08-15T11:52:12+00:00

On x86 set_pte_at() is now always falling back to set_pte(). So instead of having this fallback after the paravirt maze just drop the set_pte_at paravirt operation and let set_pte_at() use the set_pte() function directly.

treewide: Switch printk users from %pf and %pF to %ps and %pS, respectively

2019-04-09T12:19:06+00:00

%pF and %pf are functionally equivalent to %pS and %ps conversion specifiers. The former are deprecated, therefore switch the current users to use the preferred variant. The changes have been produced by the following command: git grep -l '%p[fF]' | grep -v '^$tools\|Documentation$/' | \ while read i; do perl -i -pe 's/%pf/%ps/g; s/%pF/%pS/g;' $i; done And verifying the result.

tracing/x86/xen: Remove zero data size trace events trace_xen_mmu_flush_tlb{_all}

2018-05-14T21:02:30+00:00

Doing an audit of trace events, I discovered two trace events in the xen subsystem that use a hack to create zero data size trace events. This is not what trace events are for. Trace events add memory footprint overhead, and if all you need to do is see if a function is hit or not, simply make that function noinline and use function tracer filtering. Worse yet, the hack used was: __array(char, x, 0) Which creates a static string of zero in length. There's assumptions about such constructs in ftrace that this is a dynamic string that is nul terminated. This is not the case with these tracepoints and can cause problems in various parts of ftrace. Nuke the trace events!

x86/mm: Rename flush_tlb_single() and flush_tlb_one() to __flush_tlb_one_[user|kernel]()

2018-02-15T00:15:52+00:00

flush_tlb_single() and flush_tlb_one() sound almost identical, but they really mean "flush one user translation" and "flush one kernel translation". Rename them to flush_tlb_one_user() and flush_tlb_one_kernel() to make the semantics more obvious. [ I was looking at some PTI-related code, and the flush-one-address code is unnecessarily hard to understand because the names of the helpers are uninformative. This came up during PTI review, but no one got around to doing it. ] Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Cc: Boris Ostrovsky Cc: Borislav Petkov Cc: Brian Gerst Cc: Dave Hansen Cc: Eduardo Valentin Cc: Hugh Dickins Cc: Josh Poimboeuf Cc: Juergen Gross Cc: Kees Cook Cc: Linus Torvalds Cc: Linux-MM Cc: Rik van Riel Cc: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Will Deacon Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/3303b02e3c3d049dc5235d5651e0ae6d29a34354.1517414378.git.luto@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar
