Subject: [patch 06/20] Allocate a fixmap slot
Date: Wed, 04 Apr 2007 12:11:57 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070404191205.293858634@goop.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20070404191151.009821039@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.
