Hi Julien,

Hello Sergej,

-int p2m_alloc_table(struct domain *d)
+static int p2m_alloc_table(struct domain *d)

While moving parts of the altp2m code out of ./xen/arch/arm/p2m.c, the
function p2m_alloc_table needs to be called from ./xen/arch/arm/altp2m.c
to allocate the individual altp2m views. Hence it should not be static.

No, this function should not be called outside p2m.c as it will not
fully initialize the p2m. You need to need to provide a function to
initialize a p2m (such as p2m_init).


The last time we have discussed reusing existing code, among others, for
individual struct p2m_domain initialization routines. Also, we have
agreed to move altp2m-related parts out of p2m.c into altp2m.c, which
makes it hard not to access parts required for initialization/teardown
(that are equal for both p2m and altp2m).

I remember this discussion. However, the p2m initialize/teardown should exactly be the same for the hostp2m and altp2m (except for the type of the p2m). So, a function should be provided to initialize a full p2m to avoid code duplication.
