direct_remap_pfn_range() does not properly mark vma with VM_PFNMAP. This triggers improper reference counting on what rmap thought was a normal page, and a subsequent BUG() such as: Eeek! page_mapcount(page) went negative! (-1) page->flags = 414 page->count = 1 page->mapping = 00000000 ------------[ cut...

I have a PCI device which can perform bus master DMA. I developed a PCI device driver which can allocate DMA buffer and provide mmap operation to map the I/O and DMA buffer to user space. The PCI device driver works well under Linux 2.6.20. However it brokes under XEN 3.0.4. It appears that mmap map to the wrong memory. remap_pfn_range in mmap function return no error when it is used to map

Hi everyone, I am very excited to see that dom0 pvops is finally coming close to working, so I wanted to give it a try. >From the description it was not clear to me which kernel to chose as base for the patches.hg, so I took the latest (that was ~ 2 weeks ago) kernel on git.kernel.org I could find (post-2.6.28 git tip at that point). I managed to more or less apply all of the patches in the

Hi. This patchset implements xen/ia64 domU support. Qing He and Eddie Dong also has been woring on pv_ops so that I want to discuss before going further and avoid duplicated work. I suppose that Eddie will also post his own patch. So reviewing both patches, we can reach to better pv_ops interface. - I didn't changed the ia64 intrinsic paravirtulization abi from the last post. Presumably it
