[PATCH v12 06/18] xen/pvh: MMU changes for PVH (v2)
From: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
Date: Tue Dec 31 2013 - 23:39:33 EST
From: Mukesh Rathor <mukesh.rathor@xxxxxxxxxx>
.. which are surprinsingly small compared to the amount for PV code.
PVH uses mostly native mmu ops, we leave the generic (native_*) for
the majority and just overwrite the baremetal with the ones we need.
We also optimize one - the TLB flush. The native operation would
needlessly IPI offline VCPUs causing extra wakeups. Using the
Xen one avoids that and lets the hypervisor determine which
VCPU needs the TLB flush.
At startup, we are running with pre-allocated page-tables
courtesy of the tool-stack. But we still need to graft them
in the Linux initial pagetables. However there is no need to
unpin/pin and change them to R/O or R/W.
Note that the xen_pagetable_init due to 7836fec9d0994cc9c9150c5a33f0eb0eb08a335a
"xen/mmu/p2m: Refactor the xen_pagetable_init code." does not
need any changes - we just need to make sure that xen_post_allocator_init
does not alter the pvops from the default native one.
