Now, we map these dev_dax or fs_dax pages to kvm for DIMM/NVDIMM backend, since these pages are reserved, the check of kvm_is_reserved_pfn() misconceives those pages as MMIO. Therefor, we introduce 2 page map types, MEMORY_DEVICE_FS_DAX/MEMORY_DEVICE_DEV_DAX, to identify these pages are from NVDIMM pmem and let kvm treat these as normal pages. Without this patch, many operations will be missed due to this mistreatment to pmem pages, for example, a page may not have chance to be unpinned for KVM guest(in kvm_release_pfn_clean), not able to be marked as dirty/accessed(in kvm_set_pfn_dirty/accessed) etc. Signed-off-by: Zhang Yi --- virt/kvm/kvm_main.c | 8 ++++++-- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/virt/kvm/kvm_main.c b/virt/kvm/kvm_main.c index c44c406..969b6ca 100644 --- a/virt/kvm/kvm_main.c +++ b/virt/kvm/kvm_main.c @@ -147,8 +147,12 @@ __weak void kvm_arch_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range(struct kvm *kvm, bool kvm_is_reserved_pfn(kvm_pfn_t pfn) { - if (pfn_valid(pfn)) - return PageReserved(pfn_to_page(pfn)); + struct page *page; + + if (pfn_valid(pfn)) { + page = pfn_to_page(pfn); + return PageReserved(page) && !is_dax_page(page); + } return true; } -- 2.7.4 _______________________________________________ Linux-nvdimm mailing list Linux-nvdimm@lists.01.org https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-nvdimm
