Re: [Embedded-pv-devel] [Xen-devel] [PATCH RFC 03/18] xen/arm: allow to allocate 1/128/256/512 Mb memory chunks



Hello,

This is done to allow possibility of having 1 to 1 memory mapping chunks
with size 1/128/256/512 Mb what can sagnificantly decrease time of memory

significantly

allocation and fragmentation for 1-to-1 mapped domains.

I cannot find any patch in this series to add support for direct memory mapped guest.

Can you give details on why this patch would be an improvement for any guest and how you choose the new allocations size?
