Hi:
I modified the netfont.c of Linux HVM domU installed PVonHVM.In it, I call
hypercall_grant_table_op
(GNTTABOP_map_grant_ref...), then dom0 shutdown and restart at once.
I'm confused about this.
Before Xen 3.4.3, Xen/arch/x86/HVM/hvm.c look like this:
static long hvm_grant_table_op(unsigned int cmd, XEN_GUEST_HANDLE(void) uop,
unsigned int count)
{
if ( (cmd != GNTTABOP_query_size) && (cmd != GNTTABOP_setup_table) )
return -ENOSYS; /* all other commands need auditing */
return do_grant_table_op(cmd, uop, count);
}
I know it hadn't support all grant_table_op but only
two:GNTTABOP_query_size and GNTTABOP_setup_table.
Now, after Xen4.0.0 and later, it look like below:
static long hvm_grant_table_op( unsigned int cmd, XEN_GUEST_HANDLE(void) uop,
unsigned int count)
{
if ( !grant_table_op_is_allowed(cmd) )
return -ENOSYS; /* all other commands need auditing */
return do_grant_table_op(cmd, uop, count);
}
static int grant_table_op_is_allowed(unsigned int cmd)
{
switch (cmd) {
case GNTTABOP_query_size:
case GNTTABOP_setup_table:
case GNTTABOP_set_version:
case GNTTABOP_copy:
case GNTTABOP_map_grant_ref:
case GNTTABOP_unmap_grant_ref:
return 1;
default:
/* all other commands need auditing */
return 0;
}
}
From above, I conclude that I can map a HVM's page to another HVM, just
like two PVs.
Am I wrong? Who can give me some suggestion?

Without that it''s hard to knwo what the bug is.> From above, I conclude that I can map a HVM''s page to another HVM, just like two PVs. > Am I wrong? Who can give me some suggestion?Yes, HVM guests can now map granted frames, but not quite ''just like pv''. The grant hypercall maps the granted frame into the HVM guest''s p2m map, instead of into the pagetables. That is, you pass in a PFN, and when the grant succeeds, you still need to map that PFN in your pagetables to access the page. The checkin that added the feature came with this comment: After some discussion, here''s a second version of the patch I posted a couple of weeks back to map grant references into HVM guests. As before, this is done by modifying the P2M map, but this time there''s no new hypercall to do it. Instead, the existing GNTTABOP_map is overloaded to perform a P2M mapping if called from a shadow mode translate guest. This matches the IA64 API. http://xenbits.xen.org/hg/xen-unstable.hg/rev/c0cb307d927f Tim.

Who can give me some suggestion?I am not sure if we ever came to a conclusion on what might be the trouble. Are you still experiencing problems?
