[Xen-devel] Re: dom0 bootstrap for xenstore

Ah, it's not working because xc_map_foreign_range does not raise
refcnts on the page being mapped. unmap_range then does the right

shared_info page which is really a Xen heap page, but will do the
wrong thing for ordinary pages out of the local domain's page
allocator (like the xenstored page). It will try to tear down rmap,
drop refcnts, atc and get itself into a mess.
Isn't it possible to fix xc_map_foreign_range() to do the right thing
for
'ordinary' pages?
I think PageReserved will fix this so we can use xc_map_foreign_range.
The underlying ioctl should definitely have a safety catch added, to
avoid inadvertently mapping local non-reserved pages.
