Re: [Xen-ia64-devel] [PATCH] Strange problem with virtual aliases
I found the problem...
The real VHPT insertion is done based on the machine PTE returned from
translate_domain_pte, which does the appropriate offset calculations.
However, the insertion into the one-entry TLB uses the original PTE, but
the page size has been reset to PAGE_SIZE [1]. Thus the entry in the
one-entry TLB incorrectly maps the PAGE_SIZE sub-page which was faulted
on to the PAGE_SIZE sub-page at the bottom of the superpage.
I think it makes most sense to simply use the original itir when
inserting into the single-entry TLB, as per attached patch. I've moved
the vcpu_set_tr_entry calls up a level into vcpu_itc_d and vcpu_itc_i;
the third caller previously used the 4 flag to specify "don't do that".

[1] In fact, this is enforced twice, once in translate_domain_pte and
again in vcpu_itc_no_srlz.
