Subject: [PATCH v2 08/14] x86/mm: purge unneeded destroy_perdomain_mapping()
Date: Wed, 2 Sep 2026 10:43:52 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260901-asi-part2-8-ecc269f268b7@xenproject.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260901-asi-part2-0-ecc269f268b7@xenproject.org>
From: Roger Pau Monné <roger.pau@citrix.com>
We want to change per-domain mappings to be per-vCPU mappings. In
preparation for that, we want to arrange that
destroy_perdomain_mapping() work either with a single perdomain area,
or with a per-vCPU perdomain area.
There are two calls made from domain-scoped contexts; both calls turn
out to be unnecessary:
- destroy_perdomain_mapping() is not logically the undo of
create_perdomain_mapping(), as the name and its use in
hvm_domain_initialise() suggest. create_ allocates a per-domain L3,
but destroy_ tears down mappings without freeing it; and since the
call here passes nr == 0, it tears down nothing at all. The
per-domain L3 page is actually freed by free_perdomain_mappings(),
which hvm_domain_initialise()'s caller, arch_domain_create(),
already invokes on its failure path.
- The call in pv_domain_destroy() is redundant: arch_domain_destroy()
unconditionally calls free_perdomain_mappings(), which tears down
the same entries and additionally frees the page-table structures.
