Re: [Xen-devel] [Q] mfn_to_gmfn macro, log-dirty bitmap,
Thanks! now it gives me good numbers. seems to be working.
I thought M2P table is somehow enabled/disabled by paging_mode_translate(_d)...
So, does it mean M2P is working always regardless of
paging_mode_translate(_d) ?
Then what paging_mode_translate(_d) exactly indicates?
Thanks a lot!

Hi, folks.
I'm running 32bit PV-domu on 64bit xen&dom0 and I'm using
XEN_DOMCTL_SHADOW_OP_PEEK to get log-dirty bitmap.
First, I'm assuming this bitmap is indexed by gmfn, right? because we're
passing p2m->size parameter to xen.
The log-dirty bitmap is indexed by guest _PFN_, even for PV guests.
(see the comment at about line 400 of asm-x86/mm.h for an explanation of
the *fn terminology, and the confusion around "gmfn" in particular).
Second, I have mfn (not gmfn) which I want to translate to gmfn so that I
can correctly read corresponding bit in log-dirty bitmap. so I've tried
mfn_to_gmfn() macro below but it doesn't seem to work. (always mfn==gmfn)
Maybe because m2p table is not enabled?
The mfn_to_gmfn macro translates to GFNs (for historical reasons, IIRC
to do with earlier shadow pagetable implementations). To inspect the
logdirty bitmap you want to translate to PFNs, so you should call
get_gpfn_from_mfn() directly.
Cheers,
Tim.
How can I properly do mfn_to_gmfn?
#define mfn_to_gmfn(_d, mfn) \
( (paging_mode_translate(_d)) \
? get_gpfn_from_mfn(mfn) \
: (mfn) )
Thanks for any help.
