similar to: xc_translate_foreign_address() returns mfn??

Hi all, I am receiving an error on a VT HVM, which appears to be located in the function xc_translate_foreign_address. Running the xenctx tool on a VT HVM (xen-testing 3.0.2) it returns: # ./xenctx -f 1 eip: c027b646 esp: c0441ed4 eax: 000000c4 ebx: c0495300 ecx: 000001f7 edx: 000001f7 esi: c0495394 edi: 00000000 ebp: c027fec0 cs: 00000060 ds: 0000007b fs: 00000000 gs:

Hello, Recently many advanced memory mechanisms are introduced into Xen. One problem we found is the conflict between p2m query and setting. For example, backend drivers always map domU’s page to its own space, during the mapping procedure, situations as follow may happen, when mfn is obtained by gfn_to_mfn(), this mfn is likely to be paged out. first case: grant mapping

Populate-on-demand: Check pages being returned by the balloon driver This patch series is the second result of my work last summer on decreasing fragmentation of superpages in a guests'' p2m when using populate-on-demand. This patch series is against 4.1; I''m posting it to get feedback on the viability of getting a ported version of this patch into 4.2. As with the previous

Hi, Olaf we have tested the xenpaging feature and found some problems. (1) the test case like this : when we start a VM with POD enable, the xenpaging is started at the same time. this case will cause many problems ,finally, we fixed the BUG, the patch is attached below. (2) there is a very serious problem. we have observed many VM crash examples, the error code is not always the same.

Hi: I wanna write code about sharing memory between dom0 and domU, and I decide to use void *xc_map_foreign_range(int xc_handle, unint32_t dom, int size, int port, unsigned long mfn) (this is a function in xenctl.h). My question is : If I wanna map a range of memory in dom0 to domU, how can I　get the value of mfn? and I do not know the port here. Can anybody help me ? Thanks .

Hi Jan, It seems the last changes to xen-unstable to implement multi-msi-irq''s cause some trouble. The guest starts and works fine. But it causes a xen crash when shutting the guest down.

ging_prep ensures that an mfn is backing the paged-out gfn, and transitions to the next state in the paging state machine for this page. Foreign mappings of the gfn will now succeed. This is the key idea, as it allows the pager to now map the gfn and fill in its contents. Unfortunately, it also allows any other foreign mapper to map the gfn and read its contents. This is particularly dangerous

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

Hi Jan, Attached patch dumps io page fault flags. The flags show the reason of the fault and tell us if this is an unmapped interrupt fault or a DMA fault.

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

I am using Xen 3.0.4 vmx (on Intel VT). I need to map in a foreign page, given its mfn (not gpfn), into dom0. I used to do this quite well with Xen 3.0.2. However, when I ported my code to Xen 3.0.4, things seem to have changed. Does xc_map_foreign_range accept an mfn or a gpfn as its argument? It seems to be accepting gpfn in 3.0.4. Is that true? If so, can anyone please suggest a way for

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

The following two patches allow the parallel use of memsharing, xenpaging and xen-access by using an independent ring buffer for each feature. Please review. v2: - update mem_event_check_ring arguments, check domain rather than domain_id - check ring_full first because its value was just evaluated - check if ring buffer is initialized before calling mem_access_domctl/mem_paging_domctl

By default, the function add_to_physmap_one set mfn to 0. Some code paths that result to an error, continue and the map the mfn 0 (valid on ARM) to the slot given by the guest. To fix the problem, return directly an error if sanity check has failed.

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 All, When tried to pass through 2 mpt2sas HBA to hvm guest, hvmloader paused with below: MPT BIOS Fault 09h encountered at adapter PCI(00h,04h,00h) Press any key to continue... Checked related codes and mostly like it caused by rombios did not loaded MPT BIOS properly, and lead MPT BIOS failed to bootup. config-file of the guest as below: ---------------------------------- # cat vm.cfg
