When a host (L0) page which is mapped into a (L1) guest is in turn mapped through to a nested (L2) guest we keep a reverse mapping (rmap) so that these mappings can be retrieved later. Whenever we create an entry in a shadow_pgtable for a nested guest we create a corresponding rmap entry and add it to the list for the L1 guest memslot at the index of the L1 guest page it maps. This means at the L1 guest memslot we end up with lists of rmaps. When we are notified of a host page being invalidated which has been mapped through to a (L1) guest, we can then walk the rmap list for that guest page, and find and invalidate all of the corresponding shadow_pgtable entries. In order to reduce memory consumption, we compress the information for each rmap entry down to 52 bits -- 12 bits for the LPID and 40 bits for the guest real page frame number -- which will fit in a single unsigned long. To avoid a scenario where a guest can trigger unbounded memory allocations, we scan the list when adding an entry to see if there is already an entry with the contents we need. This can occur, because we don't ever remove entries from the middle of a list. A struct nested guest rmap is a list pointer and an rmap entry; ---------------- | next pointer | ---------------- | rmap entry | ---------------- Thus the rmap pointer for each guest frame number in the memslot can be either NULL, a single entry, or a pointer to a list of nested rmap entries. gfn memslot rmap array ------------------------- 0 | NULL | (no rmap entry) ------------------------- 1 | single rmap entry | (rmap entry with low bit set) ------------------------- 2 | list head pointer | (list of rmap entries) ------------------------- The final entry always has the lowest bit set and is stored in the next pointer of the last list entry, or as a single rmap entry. With a list of rmap entries looking like; ----------------- ----------------- ------------------------- | list head ptr | ----> | next pointer | ----> | single rmap entry | ----------------- ----------------- ------------------------- | rmap entry | | rmap entry | ----------------- ------------------------- Signed-off-by: Suraj Jitindar Singh <sjitindarsingh@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org> Reviewed-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> |
