Merge tag 'kvm-x86-asyncpf_abi-6.9' of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux into HEAD
Guest-side KVM async #PF ABI cleanup for 6.9
Delete kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data.enabled to fix a goof in KVM's async #PF ABI where
the enabled field pushes the size of "struct kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data" from 64 to
68 bytes, i.e. beyond a single cache line.
The enabled field is purely a guest-side flag that Linux-as-a-guest uses to
track whether or not the guest has enabled async #PF support. The actual flag
that is passed to the host, i.e. to KVM proper, is a single bit in a synthetic
MSR, MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_EN, i.e. is in a location completely unrelated to the
shared kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data structure.
Simply drop the the field and use a dedicated guest-side per-CPU variable to
fix the ABI, as opposed to fixing the documentation to match reality. KVM has
never consumed kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data.enabled, so the odds of the ABI change
breaking anything are extremely low.3 files changed
