From: Lance Yang <[email protected]> Enable the optimization introduced in the previous patch for x86.
native_pv_tlb_init() checks whether native_flush_tlb_multi() is in use. On CONFIG_PARAVIRT systems, it checks pv_ops; on non-PARAVIRT, native flush is always in use. It decides once at boot whether to enable the optimization: if using native TLB flush and INVLPGB is not supported, we know IPIs were sent and can skip the redundant sync. The decision is fixed via a static key as Peter suggested[1]. PV backends (KVM, Xen, Hyper-V) typically have their own implementations and don't call native_flush_tlb_multi() directly, so they cannot be trusted to provide the IPI guarantees we need. Two-step plan as David suggested[2]: Step 1 (this patch): Skip redundant sync when we're 100% certain the TLB flush sent IPIs. INVLPGB is excluded because when supported, we cannot guarantee IPIs were sent, keeping it clean and simple. Step 2 (future work): Send targeted IPIs only to CPUs actually doing software/lockless page table walks, benefiting all architectures. Regarding Step 2, it obviously only applies to setups where Step 1 does not apply: like x86 with INVLPGB or arm64.
