[Xen-devel] [RFC] xen: map foreign pages for shared rings by updating the PTEs directly
This series of patches allows the vmalloc_sync_all() to be removed from alloc_vm_area() by getting the hypervisor to update the PTEs (in init_mm) directly rather than having the hypervisor look in the current page tables to find the PTEs. Once the hypervisor has updated the PTEs, the normal mechanism of syncing the page tables after a fault works as expected. This mechanism doesn''t currently work on the ia64 port as that does not support the GNTMAP_contains_pte flag.

[Xen-devel] [PATCH 1/4] xen: use generic functions instead of xen_{alloc, free}_vm_area()
From: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com> Replace calls to the Xen-specific xen_alloc_vm_area() and xen_free_vm_area() functions with the generic equivalent (alloc_vm_area() and free_vm_area()). On x86, these were identical already.
