hi
I read the code about vmcreate,and I am confused about the function of setup_pgtables_x86_64(),which is called by xc_dom_boot_image(), does the setup_pgtables_x86_64() setup the kernel Pte for the guestos kernel ,that is, the guestos will run with it ,is it right? if it is ,why does it do this here and why does it not do this in the guestos? another one , does setup_pgtables_x86_64()setup the pte for all the mfn which is allocated for the VM,or not?
I am really confused about it

could you help me
Thanks in advance
