[patch 06/32] xen: Xen virtual mmu

From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge
Date: Sun Apr 29 2007 - 13:41:15 EST


Xen pagetable handling, including the machinery to implement direct
pagetables. This means that pte update operations are intercepted so
that pseudo-physical addresses can be converted to machine addresses.
It also implements late pinning/early unpinning so that pagetables are
initialized while they're normal read-write memory as much as
possible, yet pinned to make cr3 reloads as efficient as possible.

+ * Xen mmu operations
+ *
+ * This file contains the various mmu fetch and update operations.
+ * The most important job they must perform is the mapping between the
+ * domain's pfn and the overall machine mfns.
+ *
+ * Xen allows guests to directly update the pagetable, in a controlled
+ * fashion. In other words, the guest modifies the same pagetable
+ * that the CPU actually uses, which eliminates the overhead of having
+ * a separate shadow pagetable.
+ *
+ * In order to allow this, it falls on the guest domain to map its
+ * notion of a "physical" pfn - which is just a domain-local linear
+ * address - into a real "machine address" which the CPU's MMU can
+ * use.
+ *
+ * A pgd_t/pmd_t/pte_t will typically contain an mfn, and so can be
+ * inserted directly into the pagetable. When creating a new
+ * pte/pmd/pgd, it converts the passed pfn into an mfn. Conversely,
+ * when reading the content back with __(pgd|pmd|pte)_val, it converts
+ * the mfn back into a pfn.
+ *
+ * The other constraint is that all pages which make up a pagetable
+ * must be mapped read-only in the guest. This prevents uncontrolled
+ * guest updates to the pagetable. Xen strictly enforces this, and
+ * will disallow any pagetable update which will end up mapping a
+ * pagetable page RW, and will disallow using any writable page as a
+ * pagetable.
+ *
+ * Naively, when loading %cr3 with the base of a new pagetable, Xen
+ * would need to validate the whole pagetable before going on.
+ * Naturally, this is quite slow. The solution is to "pin" a
+ * pagetable, which enforces all the constraints on the pagetable even
+ * when it is not actively in use. This menas that Xen can be assured
+ * that it is still valid when you do load it into %cr3, and doesn't
+ * need to revalidate it.
