Just a matter of taste, but you could replace the "return i" here also with a "break" since you're returning i below anyway.

right a single out point is always better.

I still think the naming or size parameter is confusing here. If I read something like alloc_io_pages(), I'd expect a "num_pages" parameter. So if you want to keep the "size" in bytes, I'd suggest to rename the function to "alloc_io_mem" instead.

OK, I rename the function, allowing the user to keep a simple interface
without having to calculate the page order.


+{
+    int order = (size >> PAGE_SHIFT);

I think this is wrong. According to the description of alloc_pages_flag, it allocates "1ull << order" pages.
So you likely want to do this instead here:

         int order = get_order(size >> PAGE_SHIFT);

you are absolutely right.


+    void *p;
+    int n;
+
+    assert(size);
+
+    p = alloc_pages_flags(order, AREA_DMA31 | flags);
+    if (!p || !test_facility(158))
+        return p;
+
+    n = share_pages(p, 1 << order);
+    if (n == 1 << order)
+        return p;
+
+    unshare_pages(p, n);
+    free_pages(p);
+    return NULL;
+}
+
+void free_io_pages(void *p, int size)
+{
+    int order = size >> PAGE_SHIFT;

dito?

yes :(


+    assert(IS_ALIGNED((uintptr_t)p, PAGE_SIZE));
+
+    if (test_facility(158))
+        unshare_pages(p, 1 << order);
+    free_pages(p);
+}

I think "virtualization" (with an z) is more common than "virtualisation".

OK


Thanks,
