From 5dea1c88ed11a1221581c4b202f053c4fc138704 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rusty Russell Date: Fri, 22 Jul 2011 14:39:48 +0930 Subject: lguest: use a special 1:1 linear pagetable mode until first switch. The Host used to create some page tables for the Guest to use at the top of Guest memory; it would then tell the Guest where this was. In particular, it created linear mappings for 0 and 0xC0000000 addresses because lguest used to switch to its real page tables quite late in boot. However, since d50d8fe19 Linux initialized boot page tables in head_32.S even before the "are we lguest?" boot jump. So, now we can simplify things: the Host pagetable code assumes 1:1 linear mapping until it first calls the LHCALL_NEW_PGTABLE hypercall, which we now do before we reach C code. This also means that the Host doesn't need to know anything about the Guest's PAGE_OFFSET. (Non-Linux guests might not even have such a thing).
