[Xen-devel] [PATCH v5 0/2] xen: modify kernel mappings corresponding to granted pages

Hi all,
this is the fifth version of the patch "xen: modify kernel mappings
corresponding to granted pages":


changes to v4:

- add many more comments to the code;

- fix some code style issues;

- use set_page_private/page_private macros;

- compare with GNTST_general_error rather than -1;

- BUG in case map->pages are highmem;


Changes to v3:

- move the xen_mc_entry call in m2p_remove_override after the
xen_mc_flush call;

- use false rather than 0 as a parameter to alloc_xenballooned_pages;

- update the m2p_add_override call in blkback.c, following the new
interface;

- fix few code style issues.


Changes to v2:

- drop highmem support;

- fold the multicall patch into the main patch;

- add another patch to extend the alloc_xenballooned_pages interface
with an highmem parameter that allows the caller to explicitly request
for highmem or lowmem pages;

- modify gntdev to use lowmem pages only thanks to the new
alloc_xenballooned_pages interface.


Shortlog and diffstat follow:

Stefano Stabellini (2):
      xen: add an "highmem" parameter to alloc_xenballooned_pages

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v5 1/2] xen: add an "highmem" parameter to alloc_xenballooned_pages

From: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@eu.citrix.com>

Add an highmem parameter to alloc_xenballooned_pages, to allow callers to
request lowmem or highmem pages.

Fix the code style of free_xenballooned_pages'' prototype.

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v5 2/2] xen: modify kernel mappings corresponding to granted pages

From: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@eu.citrix.com>

If we want to use granted pages for AIO, changing the mappings of a user
vma and the corresponding p2m is not enough, we also need to update the
kernel mappings accordingly.
Currently this is only needed for pages that are created for user usages
through /dev/xen/gntdev. As in, pages that have been in use by the
kernel and use the P2M will not need this special mapping.
However there are no guarantees that in the future the kernel won''t
start accessing pages through the 1:1 even for internal usage.

In order to avoid the complexity of dealing with highmem, we allocated
the pages lowmem.
We issue a HYPERVISOR_grant_table_op right away in
m2p_add_override and we remove the mappings using another
HYPERVISOR_grant_table_op in m2p_remove_override.
Considering that m2p_add_override and m2p_remove_override are called
once per page we use multicalls and hypercall batching.

Use the kmap_op pointer directly as argument to do the mapping as it is
guaranteed to be present up until the unmapping is done.
Before issuing any unmapping multicalls, we need to make sure that the
mapping has already being done, because we need the kmap->handle to be
set correctly.

I am going to change that to (BITS_PER_LONG-1) as we aren''t
using the P2M. (and add that comment in the file).

And both patches are now in 3.2 queue.

You should also move it away from/out of the "/**** MACHINE <->
PHYSICAL
CONVERSION MACROS ****/" section, otherwise it''s just confusing.

The associated GRANT_FRAME macro seems to be unused.

But what is that bit in page->private actually used for? This patch adds
it in m2p_add_override and masks it off in m2p_find_override, but
doesn''t otherwise appear to use it.

Ian.
