From 64e239804e21901f1a171681269460878bb5f198 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Lutomirski Date: Thu, 10 Dec 2015 19:20:19 -0800 Subject: x86, vdso, pvclock: Simplify and speed up the vdso pvclock reader commit 6b078f5de7fc0851af4102493c7b5bb07e49c4cb upstream. The pvclock vdso code was too abstracted to understand easily and excessively paranoid. Simplify it for a huge speedup. This opens the door for additional simplifications, as the vdso no longer accesses the pvti for any vcpu other than vcpu 0. Before, vclock_gettime using kvm-clock took about 45ns on my machine. With this change, it takes 29ns, which is almost as fast as the pure TSC implementation.
