Add hypercall (shadow op: enable/disable and clean/peek dirtied page bitmap). It consists of two parts: dirty page detecting and saving. For detecting, we setup the guest p2m''s leaf PTE read-only and whenever the guest tries to write something, permission fault happens and traps into xen. The permission-faulted GPA should be saved for the toolstack (when it wants to see which pages

While looking at the origin of very frequently executed hypercalls (as usual, kernel builds are what''s being measured), I realized that the high page accessor functions in Linux would be good candidates to handle in the hypervisor - clearing or copying to/from a high page is a pretty frequent operation (provided there''s enough memory). However, the measured results

This set of patches adds the support for acceleration plugins to the netfront/netback drivers. These plugins are intended to support virtualisable network hardware that can be directly accessed from the guest, bypassing dom0. This is in response to the RFC we posted to xen-devel with an outline of our approach at the end of September. To follow will be another set of patches to provide our

The patch deals with the situation which guest OS uses unused page table pages as data pages and write data to them. The pages will still be grabbed by Xen as page table pages, and lots of unnecessary page faults occur. The patch will check if the data guest writes to the page table contains valid mfn or not, if not, we believe it is a data page now and then unshadow the page. The patch

This patch series includes a series of bugs related to p2m, ept, and PoD code which were found as part of our XenServer product testing. Each of these fixes actual bugs, and the 3.4-based version of the patch has been tested thoroughly. (There may be bugs in porting the patches, but most of them are simple enough as to make it unlikely.) Each patch is conceptually independent, so they can each

While looking at the origin of very frequently executed hypercalls I realized that the high page accessor functions in Linux would be good candidates to handle in the hypervisor - clearing or copying to/from a high page is a pretty frequent operation (provided there''s enough memory in the domain). While prior to the first submission I only measured kernel builds (where the results are not

I want to know any difference between writing, reading and shadow page table (for example performance). I am thankful for any help or resource for that. -- Best Regards Mohamad Taghi Mir Mohamad Rezaie Iran University of Science and Technology Department of Computer Science & Engineering System Software Group _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list

This patch series is a reworking of a series developed by Mukesh Rathor at Oracle. The entirety of the design and development was done by him; I have only reworked, reorganized, and simplified things in a way that I think makes more sense. The vast majority of the credit for this effort therefore goes to him. This version is labelled v13 because it is based on his most recent series, v11.

Hello everyone, this is the fourth version of the patch series that introduces ARMv7 with virtualization extensions support in Xen. The series allows Xen and Dom0 to boot on a Cortex-A15 based Versatile Express simulator. See the following announce email for more informations about what we are trying to achieve, as well as the original git history: See
