[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The patch titled
     paravirt_ops: Allocate a fixmap slot
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     paravirt_ops-allocate-a-fixmap-slot.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: paravirt_ops: Allocate a fixmap slot
From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xxxxxxxx>

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.
