Howdy all,
I'm having problems getting what should be a reasonably
fundamental operation working.
I have a set of xenheap pages that I'm initialising and then attempting
to map in to dom0 (This is for hcall tracing [ xen/common/trace.c ])
If I dump that pages (or parts thereof) from xen I get the expected
contents, when trying to dump them from the dom0 kernel I get random
data.
So my question is should share_xen_page_with_guest() work for xenheap
pages?
I'm pretty confident that share_xen_page_with_guest() works as it's used
for grant tables.
Page in xen:
memdump(): 0000 0xa5a5 0xa5a5 (0x734000)
memdump(): 0004 0xa5a5 0xa5a5 (0x734000)
page in dom0 kernel:
memdump(): 0000 0x0000 0x0001 (0xf7fdf000)
memdump(): 0004 0xffff 0xffff (0xf7fdf000)
the userspace tools are locating the correct mfn for the pages I'm
trying to map.
Does anyone have any ideas on what I can look at to work out why I'm not
getting that page I think I should be getting?
Also, this may or may not be related.
If I don't call down to share_xen_page_with_guest() I would have
expected to get some form of oops or crash, but the machine exhibits the
same behavior. Actually that probably indicates that I'm getting a
kernel pages rather than xen page.
Yours Tony
