Hello, I''m getting many "Error getting mfn" on a xen4.1.3 with dom0 3.4.11 x86_32. I thought it could be related to xen/mmu: Release just the MFN list, not MFN list and part of pagetables. http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git;a=commit;h=785f62314984ea3af9dd830b020289ba2509ae69 (XEN) Freed 212kB init memory.

Hi, I have allocated few order=9 pages in Xen memory space using alloc_domheap_pages(NULL,9,0) during boot time just before domain is created (dom0 = domain_create(0, DOMCRF_s3_integrity, DOM0_SSIDREF) in xen/arch/x86/setup.c). I got the following virtual addresses in xen log message- (XEN) a2k2: Virt_addr:ffff83011cc00000 MFN:11cc00 (XEN) a2k2: Virt_addr:ffff83011ca00000 MFN:11ca00 (XEN)

(This is a continuation of "[PATCH v9] xen/grant-table: Avoid m2p_override during mapping") The grant mapping API does m2p_override unnecessarily: only gntdev needs it, for blkback and future netback patches it just cause a lock contention, as those pages never go to userspace. Therefore this series does the following: - the bulk of the original function (everything after the mapping

There has been some progress, but still no joy. Definitely not intended for inclusion at this point. Tim, Wei, I added a Xen command line toggle to disable IOMMU and P2M table sharing. Tim, I verified that changes to p2m-pt.c don''t break shadow mode (64bit hypervisor and Win 7 guest). Hongkaixing, I incorporated your suggestion in patch 2, so I should add your Signed-off-by eventually.

Hi! We have a problem that the dom0 very often does not boot and hangs in the hypervisor - see screenshot. The last message is: (XEN) Dom0 has maximum 16 VCPUs (afterwards xen should overwrite the memory) We are using the xen kernel from kernel.org git. Kernel is 2.6.32.24-xen with Xen 4.0.1 Hardware is HP DL380. Is this a known problem? Any hints what could be the problem and how we can

Hi, I am bit confused about the do_update_va_mapping call that dom0 makes in xen_ident_map_ISA() to map ffff8800000a0000 to mfn a0. The mfn belongs to DOMID_IO. Before the mfn is mapped, the l1 entry is not empty: 0000000139d08500: 00100001380a0027 After the mapping: 0000000139d08500: 00100000000a0467 as expected. However, the mfn 1380a0 still seems to belong to dom0. Shouldn''t

Hi, On paravirt x86 (both 32- and 64-bit), since cset 13998: http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-unstable.hg?rev/13998 we translate all ptes from being mfn-based to pfn-based when the hardware _PAGE_PRESENT bit is cleared. We do this for PROT_NONE pages, which appear to the HV to be non-present, but which are special-cased in the kernel to appear present (a different bit in the

This series implements ballooning for Xen on ARM and builds and Mukesh''s PVH privcmd stuff to implement foreign page mapping on ARM, replacing the old "HACK: initial (very hacky) XENMAPSPACE_gmfn_foreign" patch. The baseline is a bit complex, it is basically Stefano''s xenarm-forlinus branch (commit bbd6eb29214e) merged with Konrad''s linux-next-pvh branch

Hi, V6: The only change from V5 is in patch #6: - changed comment to reflect autoxlate - removed a redundant ASSERT - reworked logic a bit so that get_page_from_gfn() is called with NULL for p2m type as before. arm has ASSERT wanting it to be NULL. Tim: patch 4 needs your approval. Daniel: patch 5 needs your approval. These patches implement PVH dom0. Patches 1 and 2

Hello, I''m new to Xen and especially to the hypervisor code. I''m working off a 3.0.4.1 base and have the following questions regarding the memory management code for an x86, 32-bit platform (capable of supporting PAE). I''m doing some research into providing grant table hypercall support from a Windows 2003 HVM. I have made all the necessary changes to allow the

Hi, I looked at the function xc_translate_foreign_address(), and see that it walks the page table of the guest VM. So at best, it should return the pfn of the guest (?) We can see taht the Later part of the function is like this: ... if (pt_levels >= 3) mfn = (pte & L0_PAGETABLE_MASK_PAE) >> PAGE_SHIFT; else mfn = (pte & L0_PAGETABLE_MASK)

Hi, we have some problems with acpidump running on Xen Dom0. On 64 bit Dom0 it will trigger the OOM killer, on 32 bit Dom0s it will cause a kernel crash. The hypervisor does not matter, I tried 4.1.3-rc2 as well as various unstable versions including 25467, also 32-bit versions of 4.1. The Dom0 kernels were always PVOPS versions, the problems starts with 3.2-rc1~194 and is still in 3.5.0-rc3.

Hi, Maybe it''s a dumb question, but I''m actually trying to understand how the memory allocation works within Xen. I try to give 128MB to a domU and see if it increases for example when I "nano" a 500mb file, but the process just get killed when it reachs the 128MB memory limit. How do I configure the guests so they can ask for more memory until a limit is reached

This is my current set of updates to Xen for 2.6.24. This is largely a bugfix set, and a couple of them are also relevent to 2.6.23. These are in the pre-x86 merge form; I'll update them once the merge goes into git. Quick overview: - remove some dead code in arch/i386/mm/init.c - clean up some duplicate includes - when sending an IPI, yield the vcpu if the destination doesn't have
