Optimized AMD SEV Cache Flushing For KVM Looked At For Linux 6.17
A patch series is baking for likely upstreaming in the Linux v6.17 kernel cycle later in the year to optimize AMD CPU cache flushing when making use of Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) with KVM.
A patch series is baking for likely upstreaming in the Linux v6.17 kernel cycle later in the year to optimize AMD CPU cache flushing when making use of Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) with KVM. THhis optimized AMD CPU cache flushing for only on CPUs running a given SEV guest should help with performance though no benchmark numbers were provided as part of this patch series for highlighting the benefits. In any event look for this patch series providing optimized AMD cache flushing for SEV to likely land later in 2025.About The AuthorMichael Larabel is the principal author of Phoronix.com and founded the site in 2004 with a focus on enriching the Linux hardware experience.
