About 25% of the time spent in emulation of invalid guest state is wasted in checking whether emulation is required for the next instruction. However, this almost never changes except when a segment register (or TR or LDTR) changes, or when there is a mode transition (i.e. CR0 changes). In fact, vmx_set_segment and vmx_set_cr0 already modify vmx->emulation_required (except that the former for some reason uses |= instead of just an assignment). So there is no need to call guest_state_valid in the emulation loop. Emulation performance test results indicate 1650-2600 cycles for common instructions, versus 2300-3200 before this patch on a Sandy Bridge Xeon. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> |
