Tim,
in the course of adding >16Tb support to the hypervisor, I ran into
issues with you having added several open-coded page list accesses
while breaking up non-order-0 allocations there. I looked at that
code for quite a while, but wasn't really able to figure how to
properly convert these. In particular I'm struggling with the list
terminations (would using NULL for PAGE_LIST_NULL be correct
when using ordinary struct list_head-s for struct page_info's list
member?) and the implications of this comment
/* Page lists don't have pointers back to the head structure, so
* it's safe to use a head structure on the stack to link the pages
* together. */
in shadow_alloc(), but then again I also didn't look very closely at
the other places that also fail to compile.
To help myself test the new code, I invented a shadow stub which
provides just enough functionality to build and not crash with all
the other shadow code compiled out. I wonder whether such a
build mode might actually be useful for other purposes, and hence
whether it might be worthwhile extracting that from the patch into
a standalone one.
Thanks, Jan

Yes, I think so. The fragmentary lists would terminate in NULL in both directions. > and the implications of this comment > > /* Page lists don't have pointers back to the head structure, so > * it's safe to use a head structure on the stack to link the pages > * together. */ Yep; we'd have to make sure that we explicitly NULL'ed out the first page's prev and the last page's next. This all seems a bit unsatisfactory though. Maybe it would be better to piggy-back these partial lists into the hash-table's linked list (i.e. the 'next_shadow' field) instead of the pinned list. That list is much more active, though. Let me have a think about it on Thursday (assuming I don't have too many patch series to review by then!) > in shadow_alloc(), but then again I also didn't look very closely at > the other places that also fail to compile. > > To help myself test the new code, I invented a shadow stub which > provides just enough functionality to build and not crash with all > the other shadow code compiled out.

If it's not too much work, yes please. There are already use cases where people don't need shadow pagetable support, and once PVH is stable that will be more common. Having the option to compile out 7kloc of twisty MMU code seems good. :) Tim. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

OK, here's what I have. It keeps the mechanism the same, threading on the main page list entry, but tidies it up to use the page_list operations rather than open-coding. I've tested it (lightly - basically jsut boot testing) with 32bit, 32pae and 64bit Windows VMs (all SMP), with bigmem=y and bigmem=n. It was developed on top of your bigmem series, but it should apply OK before patch 3/4, removing the need to nobble shadow-paging in that patch. Cheers, Tim. >From 57d211e47ef42012791252b4897231b392b7aff7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tim Deegan <tim@xen.org> Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2015 17:09:58 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] x86/shadow: Tidy up fragmentary page lists in multi-page shadows. Multi-page shadows are linked together using the 'list' field. When those shadows are in the pinned list, the list fragments are spliced into the pinned list; otherwise they have no associated list head. Rework the code that handles these fragments to use the page_list interface rather than manipulating the fields directly. This makes the code cleaner, and allows the 'list' field to be either the compact pdx form or a normal list_entry.

Urgh, maybe. I'd have thought this would end up as a common symbol (if that's the term I mean - one where the linker will merge identical copies) but I didn't check what actually happens.
