The 'DRC invalid' bit seems to suggests it's a perfectly valid scenario to have LMBs with no backing drc, so I would think the other fields should still be filled out appropriately, even if it might not get used by guest either way. I think an argument could be made for not setting addr for LMBs to used to cover the RAM->hotplug gap, since that's padding rather than real memory. But effectively re-using addr 0 seems like more of a liability than a safeguard. If 'reserved' flag is doing what we expect, then it's probably best not to deviate from normal values any more than necessary, IMO. > = > > = > > > + dynamic_memory[2] =3D cpu_to_be32(0); > > > + dynamic_memory[3] =3D cpu_to_be32(0); /* reserved */ > > > + dynamic_memory[4] =3D cpu_to_be32(-1); > > > + dynamic_memory[5] =3D cpu_to_be32(SPAPR_LMB_FLAGS_RESERV= ED); > > = > > LoPAPR Table 248 defines a "DRC invalid" bit at 0x00000020, which I > > think is what we'll want for cases where there's no backing DRC. > = > Seems to work.
