From f8d0186a269c4424978476472a677128559505f6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: CMGS Date: Sun, 28 Jun 2026 22:06:07 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] arch: x86_64: recommend Hyper-V paravirt TLB flush and cluster IPI Adds three recommendation bits to CPUID 0x40000004.EAX so Windows / Hyper-V-aware guests use the corresponding paravirtualized hypercalls instead of falling back to architectural primitives. The hypercalls themselves are emulated unconditionally by KVM and surfaced via the corresponding KVM_CAP_HYPERV_* info caps; no userspace cap negotiation is needed because KVM advertises support to the guest at hypercall issue time: KVM_CAP_HYPERV_TLBFLUSH advertises HvFlush{VirtualAddressSpace,Ex, List,ListEx} (api.rst 8.18, info-only cap). KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SEND_IPI advertises HvCallSendSyntheticClusterIpi{,Ex} (api.rst 8.20, also info-only). Leaf 0x40000004.EAX (HV_CPUID_ENLIGHTMENT_INFO): bit 1 LocalTlbFlushRecommended bit 2 RemoteTlbFlushRecommended Recommend HvFlushVirtualAddressSpace / List in place of architectural INVPCID / INVLPG broadcasts. Remote shoot-down via hypercall lets the host skip vCPUs that are not currently scheduled, instead of waiting for an IPI ack. bit 10 ClusterIpiRecommended Recommend HvCallSendSyntheticClusterIpi over per-target APIC ICR writes. A single hypercall can target up to 64 vCPUs (or all of them via the Ex variant) versus one VM exit per APIC access on the architectural path. These bits depend on AccessVpIndex (0x40000003.EAX bit 6), which is advertised by the partition-privileges change.
