Hi All,

I would be very grateful, if anyone could explain how Jailhouse on ARM64 
architectures uses the 2nd stage MMU translation.

It does look like Jailhouse uses the 2nd stage MMU translations  - for 
example, t is easy to find in the code where such registers as VTCR_EL2 and 
VTTBR_EL2 are set. I am guessing that Jailhouse, as one would expect from a 
hypervisor, uses 2nd stage translation to protect VMs (cells) from 
accessing each others memory (unless a memory region is explicitly shared 
with a root cell by specifying JAILHOUSE_MEM_ROOTSHARED). Is that so? Could 
anyone confirm? How is IPA<->PA mapping is done for VMs? Is it 1-to-1 
mapping (so that, in fact, PA equals IPA)?

Thank you very much in advance

Best Regards,

Yelena
