[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 0/8] uq/master: TPR access optimization for Windows guests

[Jan Kiszka]

Here is v2 of the TPR access optimization. Changes:
 - plug race between patching and running VCPUs accessing the same TPR
   instruction by stopping VCPUs during patch process
 - realized forward/backward check in evaluate_tpr_instruction via a
   table but kept patch_instruction as is (too much variations for a
   table-driven approach)
 - dropped smp_cpus == 1 special case from get_kpcr_number
 - fixed comment why R/W ROM alias has to be page-aligned

The series is also available at

Please review/apply.
