发明名称 METHOD FOR REDUCING THE OVERHEAD ASSOCIATED WITH A VIRTUAL MACHINE EXIT WHEN HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS RELATED TO DESCRIPTOR TABLES
摘要 A computerized method for efficient handling of a privileged instruction executed by a virtual machine (VM). The method comprises identifying when the privileged instruction causes a VM executed on a computing hardware to perform a VM exit; replacing a first virtual-to-physical address mapping to a second virtual-to-physical address mapping respective of a virtual pointer associated with the privileged instruction; and invalidating at least a cache entry in a cache memory allocated to the VM, thereby causing a new translation for the virtual pointer to the second virtual-to-physical address, wherein the second virtual-to-physical address provides a pointer to a physical address in a physical memory in the computing hardware allocated to the VM.
