Subject: [patch 06/17] Allocate a fixmap slot
Date: Sun, 01 Apr 2007 22:56:58 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070402055704.449460943@goop.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20070402055652.610711908@goop.org
[-- Attachment #1: paravirt-fixmap.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1102 bytes --]
Allocate a fixmap slot for use by a paravirt_ops implementation. This
is intended for early-boot bootstrap mappings. Once the zones and
allocator have been set up, it would be better to use get_vm_area() to
allocate some virtual space.
Xen uses this to map the hypervisor's shared info page, which doesn't
have a pseudo-physical page number, and therefore can't be mapped
ordinarily. It is needed early because it contains the vcpu state,
including the interrupt mask.
