Subject: Refactoring mempaging code from xenpaging to libxc and few updates
Date: Fri, 8 Aug 2014 02:10:09 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1407444012-31830-1-git-send-email-myselfdushyantbehl@gmail.com> (raw)
The following patches refactor memepaging code from xenpaging to libxc -
[PATCH v3 1/3] tools/libxc: refactored mempaging code from xenpaging
This patch adds two routines xc_mem_paging_ring_setup and
xc_mem_paging_ring_teardown to libxc at the path
tools/libxc/xc_mem_paging_setup.c, which is a new file.
[PATCH v3 2/3] tools/libxc/xc_mem_paging_setup.c: replacing deprecated functions
Replaces calls to deprecated function xc_map_foreign_batch with calls to
xc_map_foreign_bulk.
[PATCH v3 3/3] tools/libxc/xc_mem_paging_setup.c: FIX- Race condition
Fix for a known race condition bug in mempaging ring setup code, this race
condition is actually simmilar to that concerned by XSA-99. This patch tries to
take care of all the points mentioned in XSA-99, along with clearing the ringpage
to remove any bogus input.
