commit c8dbdb32cef8e8ef796c925e91e347ea83735790 Author: Tamas K Lengyel <tamas.lengyel@xxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Wed Apr 8 13:03:50 2020 +0200 Commit: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@xxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Wed Apr 8 13:03:50 2020 +0200 mem_sharing: reset a fork Implement hypercall that allows a fork to shed all memory that got allocated for it during its execution and re-load its vCPU context from the parent VM. This allows the forked VM to reset into the same state the parent VM is in a faster way then creating a new fork would be. Measurements show about a 2x speedup during normal fuzzing operations. Performance may vary depending how much memory got allocated for the forked VM. If it has been completely deduplicated from the parent VM then creating a new fork would likely be more performant.
