commit 49caabf2584a26d16f73b4bd423329f8d99f7e71 Author: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Tue Nov 20 15:35:48 2018 +0100 Commit: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@xxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Tue Nov 20 15:37:42 2018 +0100 x86/dom0: Avoid using 1G superpages if shadowing may be necessary The shadow code doesn't support 1G superpages, and will hand #PF[RSVD] back to guests. For dom0's with 512GB of RAM or more (and subject to the P2M alignment), Xen's domain builder might use 1G superpages. Avoid using 1G superpages (falling back to 2M superpages instead) if there is a reasonable chance that we may have to shadow dom0. This assumes that there are no circumstances where we will activate logdirty mode on dom0.
