Make sure MFN read from pte is valid before accessing the page info structure associated with it. Drop guest-to-machine-physical translation from ptwr code.

Hi, In many places xen uses "unsigned long" instead of the l*_pgentry_t types to pass around page table entries. Here is a patch which fixes this in a number of places (mostly in shadow mode code). Thats what I''ve trapped in so far, maybe more of these patches follow. Fixing this is needed for adding PAE support to xen. In PAE paging mode the page table entries are 64 bit

1: correct LDT checks 2: add address validity check to guest_map_l1e() 3: use {rd,wr}{fs,gs}base when available 4: check for canonical address before doing page walks Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com>

I''m to porting a lightweight kernel to Xen 3.0.4-x86_64 and have run into a problem while setting the PML4. Xen complains that it has a bad type of ''PGT_writable_page'' (e8000001), while it expects 80000000. However, I''m almost certain that this is not the case. I added a routine to do a depth first search of the four page table levels looking for this machine

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, I''ve been testing Xen 4.0.1 with kernel 2.6.34.5 + http://gentoo-xen-kernel.googlecode.com/files/xen-patches-2.6.34-4.tar.bz2, and one of the things that I noticed immediately is there are two problems with tapdisk and this combination. First, the syntax "disk = [''tap:tapdisk:aio: ..." no longer works. When tested with HVM domU, it boots, but there was no disk

Hi. I've put up some docs related to my first encounter with the vorbis source code at http://surf.chimie.uqam.ca/~kruus/vorbis/encoder/index.html It documents a newbie's first look and [serious] attempts to trace through examples/example_encoder.c . Don't laugh too hard! Even though the docs are quite un-doc-like, I've stopped working on them indefinitely, since Monty

Hi, I''m searching is there is a website to browse iproute2 source code as we can do with the kernel here http://lxr.linux.no/source/ It''s a very useful tool to follow function calls and macros across the multitude of files of the package. I''ve already searched google for a websie like this but i haven''t found anything so I ask here. One more time, thank
