From 05da45583de9b383dc81dd695fe248431d6c9f2b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marcelo Tosatti Date: Sat, 23 Feb 2008 11:44:30 -0300 Subject: KVM: MMU: large page support Create large pages mappings if the guest PTE's are marked as such and the underlying memory is hugetlbfs backed. If the largepage contains write-protected pages, a large pte is not used. Gives a consistent 2% improvement for data copies on ram mounted filesystem, without NPT/EPT. Anthony measures a 4% improvement on 4-way kernbench, with NPT.
