Subject: [v2 1/4] xen/arm64: head: Don't map too much in boot_third
Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2023 21:11:26 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230629201129.12934-2-julien@xen.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230629201129.12934-1-julien@xen.org>

From: Julien Grall <jgrall@amazon.com>

At the moment, we are mapping the size of the reserved area for Xen
(i.e. 2MB) even if the binary is smaller. We don't exactly know what's
after Xen, so it is not a good idea to map more than necessary for a
couple of reasons:
    * We would need to use break-before-make if the extra PTE needs to
      be updated to point to another region
    * The extra area mapped may be mapped again by Xen with different
      memory attribute. This would result to attribute mismatch.

Therefore, rework the logic in create_page_tables() to map only what's
necessary. To simplify the logic, we also want to make sure _end
is page-aligned. So align the symbol in the linker and add an assert
to catch any change.

Lastly, take the opportunity to confirm that _start is equal to
XEN_VIRT_START as the assembly is using both interchangeably.

    Changes in v2:
        - Fix typo and coding style
        - Check _start == XEN_VIRT_START
