Re: [PATCH V5 22/22] xen/arm: Add mapcache invalidation handling
Hi Oleksandr,

We need to send mapcache invalidation request to qemu/demu everytime
the page gets removed from a guest.
At the moment, the Arm code doesn't explicitely remove the existing
mapping before inserting the new mapping. Instead, this is done
implicitely by __p2m_set_entry().
So we need to recognize a case when old entry is a RAM page *and*
the new MFN is different in order to set the corresponding flag.
AFAICT, this sentence doesn't match the code. Instead, you will request
the mapcache invalidation whenever the "freed" entry contains some RAM page.
I am fine with the approach used in the code. However, it would be good
that the commit message reflects the code.
The most suitable place to do this is p2m_free_entry(), there
we can find the correct leaf type. The invalidation request
will be sent in do_trap_hypercall() later on.
Taking into the account the following the do_trap_hypercall()
is the best place to send invalidation request:
- The only way a guest can modify its P2M on Arm is via an hypercall
- When sending the invalidation request, the vCPU will be blocked
until all the IOREQ servers have acknowledged the invalidation

Please note, this is a split/cleanup/hardening of Julien's PoC:
"Add support for Guest IO forwarding to a device emulator"
***
Please note, this patch depends on the following which is
on review:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11803383/
I think we can defer this post this series.
This patch is on par with x86 code (whether it is buggy or not).
If there is a need to improve/harden something, this can be done on
a follow-up.
***
Changes V1 -> V2:
- new patch, some changes were derived from (+ new explanation):
xen/ioreq: Make x86's invalidate qemu mapcache handling common
- put setting of the flag into __p2m_set_entry()
- clarify the conditions when the flag should be set
- use domain_has_ioreq_server()
- update do_trap_hypercall() by adding local variable
Changes V2 -> V3:
- update patch description
- move check to p2m_free_entry()
- add a comment
- use "curr" instead of "v" in do_trap_hypercall()
Changes V3 -> V4:
- update patch description
- re-order check in p2m_free_entry() to call domain_has_ioreq_server()
only if p2m->domain == current->domain
- add a comment in do_trap_hypercall()
Changes V4 -> V5:
- add Stefano's R-b
- update comment in do_trap_hypercall()
