When using two-dimensional paging, the mmu_page_hash (which provides
lookups for existing kvm_mmu_page structs), becomes imbalanced; with
too many collisions in buckets 0 and 512. This has been seen to cause
mmu_lock to be held for multiple milliseconds in kvm_mmu_get_page on
VMs with a large amount of RAM mapped with 4K pages.
The current hash function uses the lower 10 bits of gfn to index into
mmu_page_hash. When doing shadow paging, gfn is the address of the
guest page table being shadow. These tables are 4K-aligned, which
makes the low bits of gfn a good hash. However, with two-dimensional
paging, no guest page tables are being shadowed, so gfn is the base
address that is mapped by the table. Thus page tables (level=1) have
a 2MB aligned gfn, page directories (level=2) have a 1GB aligned gfn,
etc. This means hashes will only differ in their 10th bit.
hash_64() provides a better hash. For example, on a VM with ~200G
(99458 direct=1 kvm_mmu_page structs):
hash max_mmu_page_hash_collisions
--------------------------------------------
low 10 bits 49847
hash_64 105
perfect 97
While we're changing the hash, increase the table size by 4x to better
support large VMs (further reduces number of collisions in 200G VM to
29).
Note that hash_64() does not provide a good distribution prior to commit

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
