<p>In one embodiment, a method includes receiving control transitioned from a virtual machine (VM) due to a privileged event pertaining to a translation-lookaside buffer (TLB), and determining which entries in a guest translation data structure were modified by the VM. The determination is made based on metadata extracted from a shadow translation data structure maintained by a virtual machine monitor (VMM) and attributes associated with entries in the shadow translation data structure. The method further includes synchronizing entries in the shadow translation data structure that correspond to the modified entries in the guest translation data structure with the modified entries in the guest translation data structure.</p> |
