Subject[PATCH RFC] KVM: x86: VMX: hyper-v: Enlightened MSR-Bitmap support
Date
Enlightened MSR-Bitmap is a natural extension of Enlightened VMCS:
Hyper-V Top Level Functional Specification states:

"The L1 hypervisor may collaborate with the L0 hypervisor to make MSR
accesses more efficient. It can enable enlightened MSR bitmaps by setting
the corresponding field in the enlightened VMCS to 1. When enabled, the L0
hypervisor does not monitor the MSR bitmaps for changes. Instead, the L1
hypervisor must invalidate the corresponding clean field after making
changes to one of the MSR bitmaps."

RFC part: while the implementation is simple and straightforward, I'm not
observing any performance improvement with this patch. I tried both
tight CPUID loop and tight loops reading different MSR (which we intercept
in L1 and which we don't). The fluctuations in the results is too big
(probably because there's no CPU pinning in Hyper-V and there's an always
running Windows in parallel). I'd be very grateful for any insights or
ideas how this can be tested.
