Hooks are provided for the mach-XXX subarchitecture at the time prior to a page being used as a page table at all levels, for PAE and non-PAE kernels. Note that in PAE mode, multiple PDP roots may exist on the same page with other data, so the root must be shadowed instead. This is not a performance issue, since PAE only uses 4 top level PDPEs. The hooks are: SetPagePTE(ppn) - indicates that a

The VMI backend uses explicit page type notification to track shadow page tables. The allocation of page table roots is especially tricky. We want to clone the root for non-PAE mode while it is protected under the pgd lock.

If we're building a pte, we can use simple assigment; only use set_pte etc. when we're actually going to use that destination as a PTE. I don't know that we'll ever run under Xen, but it's neater. And use set_pte/set_pmd rather than assuming native_ versions, even though that's probably true for most people. (Includes compile fix by Kamalesh Babulal <kamalesh at

Is there any real use in having a ctor/dtor for the pgd cache? Given that all pgd allocation happens via pgd_alloc/pgd_free, why not just fold the [cd]tor in? I'm asking because Xen wants pgd[3] to be unshared in the PAE case, and it looks to me like the easiest way to handle that is by making pgd_alloc/free pv-ops and doing the appropriate thing in the Xen code. Would need to sort out the

From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel at suse.de> The functions are needed to map the GHCB for SEV-ES guests. The GHCB is used for communication with the hypervisor, so its content must not be encrypted. After the GHCB is not needed anymore it must be mapped encrypted again so that the running kernel image can safely re-use the memory. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <jroedel at suse.de> ---

Add a helper function to convert an arbitrary mapped virtual address to a physical frame number. Adapted from code by Chris Wright, added support for large pages. Because of the placement, this needs to be a macro; pgd_offset_k requires init_mm to be defined, and getting the include files right seemed more complicated than a macroized implementation. A more proper location would be in
