This could be a simple alternative. VM_FOREIGN has its own semantics (e.g., need to fill in vma->vm_private_data appropriately). A mm-wide flag in mmu_context would be quite simple to add, and also entirely hidden in arch code. It's then easily removed when we implement a solution based on software bits in PTEs. -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
