[Xen-devel] [RFC PATCH] ASID: Optimize hvm_flush_guest_tlbs

[Wei Wang2 <wei.wang2@xxxxxxx>]

Hi
In our testing, we found that function hvm_flush_guest_tlbs() is used very 
frequently and it will always force asid recycling and will result a whole 
tlb flush immediately no matter there are still free asids or not.  Actually, 
in this case, just increasing core generation might be enough and the 
remaining asids can still be used until  next_asid > max_asid.
Thanks,
Wei
