On 04/17/2014 11:46 AM, Jan Beulich wrote: This builds on the fact that in order for no NPF VM exit to occur, _PAGE_USER must always be set. I.e. by clearing the flag we can force a VM exit allowing us to do similar lazy type changes as on EPT. That way, the generic entry-wise code can go away, and we could remove the range restriction in enforced on HVMOP_track_dirty_vram for XSA-27. Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@xxxxxxxx> I am not particularly familiar with p2m code which is why my only comment so far is to add comments in the code ;-) --- there is a bunch of new non-trivial (to my eye) routines and so having a little bit of text would greatly help with understanding the logic. -boris _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
