Many guest fields are rarely read (or written) by VMMs, i.e. likely
aren't accessed between runs of a nested VMCS. Delay pulling rarely
accessed guest fields from vmcs02 until they are VMREAD or until vmcs12
is dirtied. The latter case is necessary because nested VM-Entry will
consume all manner of fields when vmcs12 is dirty, e.g. for consistency
checks.
Note, an alternative to synchronizing all guest fields on VMREAD would
be to read *only* the field being accessed, but switching VMCS pointers
is expensive and odds are good if one guest field is being accessed then
others will soon follow, or that vmcs12 will be dirtied due to a VMWRITE
(see above). And the full synchronization results in slightly cleaner
code.
Note, although GUEST_PDPTRs are relevant only for a 32-bit PAE guest,
they are accessed quite frequently for said guests, and a separate patch
is in flight to optimize away GUEST_PDTPR synchronziation for non-PAE
guests.
Skipping rarely accessed guest fields reduces the latency of a nested
VM-Exit by ~200 cycles.
