From 2e602847d9c2d6b487bda62bbbe550db40ca912f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Graf Date: Mon, 2 Aug 2010 20:11:39 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: PPC: Don't flush PTEs on NX/RO hit When hitting a no-execute or read-only data/inst storage interrupt we were flushing the respective PTE so we're sure it gets properly overwritten next. According to the spec, this is unnecessary though. The guest issues a tlbie anyways, so we're safe to just keep the PTE around and have it manually removed from the guest, saving us a flush.
