...ces: a) Map machine frames to virtual addresses 1:1 Machine frames can be all over the place meaning lots of gaps in the page tables mapping those pages. -> wastes pages b) Map pseudo physical frames to virtual addresses 1:1 This is continious but it always needs the phys_to_mach and mach_to_phys conversions. -> wastes time Both of those will use up pages for the mapping although only a fraction of the total. And they will use up pages for regions where no page table is actually located. 2) Maintain a shadow page table with virtual addresses So instead of 1 page per page table you us...

Hi Jeremy. Here are the 3 patches for ia64/xen support. The first one is just to move manage.c under drivers/xen. This is trivial. The second and third ones are for compilation fix on ia64. You may want to postpone those 2 patches to make your merge task easy as you said before. thanks, Diffstat arch/x86/xen/Makefile | 2 +- drivers/xen/Makefile | 2 +-

Hi all, this patch series enables xen-swiotlb on arm and arm64. It has been heavily reworked compared to the previous versions in order to achieve better performances and to address review comments. We are not using dma_mark_clean to ensure coherency anymore. We call the platform implementation of map_page and unmap_page. We assume that dom0 has been mapped 1:1 (physical address == machine

This patch series implements the Linux Xen guest in terms of the paravirt-ops interface. The features in implemented this patch series are: * domU only * UP only (most code is SMP-safe, but there's no way to create a new vcpu) * writable pagetables, with late pinning/early unpinning (no shadow pagetable support) * supports both PAE and non-PAE modes * xen console * virtual block

Unlike full virtualization in which the virtual machine provides the same platform interface as running natively on the hardware, paravirtualization requires modification to the guest operating system to work with the platform interface provided by the hypervisor. Xen was designed with performance in mind. Calls to the hypervisor are minimized, batched if necessary, and non-critical codepaths

Hi Andi, This series of patches implements the Xen paravirt-ops interface. It applies to 2.6.21-rc7 + your patches + the last batch of pv_ops patches I posted. This patch generally restricts itself to Xen-specific parts of the tree, though it does make a few small changes elsewhere. These patches include: - some helper routines for allocating address space and walking pagetables - Xen
