Subject: [PATCH 3/8] arm/xen: implement correctly pfn_to_mfn
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2015 16:02:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1438095769-2560-4-git-send-email-julien.grall@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1438095769-2560-1-git-send-email-julien.grall@citrix.com>

After the commit introducing convertion between DMA and guest address,
all the callers of pfn_to_mfn are expecting to get a GFN (Guest Frame
Number). On ARM, all the guests are auto-translated so the GFN is equal
to the Linux PFN (Pseudo-physical Frame Number).

The current implementation may return an MFN if the caller is passing a
PFN associated to a mapped foreign grant. In pratical, I haven't seen
the problem on running guest but we should fix it for the sake of
correctness.

Correct the implementation by always returning the pfn passed in parameter.

A follow-up patch will take care to rename pfn_to_mfn to a suitable
name.
