[Xen-devel] Memory pool for paravirtual guest in memory over 128G system
Hi
32-bit paravirtual domains can only consume physical memory below 168GB. On
systems with memory beyond that address, they''ll be confined to memory
below
128GB. this patch define a memory pool for 32-bit paravirtual guest used.
Using total_available_memory (in GB) in xend-config.sxp to specify the
amount of memory reserved,in the memory pool exclusively for 32-bit
paravirtual domains. Additionally you should use dom0_mem = <-Value> as a
parameter in xen kernel to reserve the memory for 32-bit paravirtual
domains, default is "0" (0GB).
Value: the total memory for 32-bit paravirtual domains
the main idea of this patch is:
1) The admin sets aside some memory below 128G for 32-bit paravirtual domain
creation (via dom0_mem=-<value> in kernel comand line).
2) The admin also explicitly states to the tools (i..e xend) how much memory
is supposed to be left untouched by 64-bit domains
3) If a 32-bit pv DomU gets created, no ballooning ought to be necessary
(since if it is, no guarantee can be made about the address range of the
memory ballooned out), and memory gets allocated from the reserved range.
4) Upon 64-bit (or 32-bit HVM or HVM) DomU creation, the tools determine the
amount of memory to be ballooned out of Dom0 by adding the amount needed for
the new guest and the amount still in the reserved pool (and then of course
subtracting the total amount of memory the hypervisor has available for
guest use).
Please give me some comments. Thanks in advance!
