i'm trying to understand how xen handles pagetables, but i'm a bit confused: 1. where is a new domain's memory mapping initialized in xen? 2. what're the differences between idle_pg_table and linear_pg_table and are they indexed by guest linear page #s or hardware page #s? 3. [this is more of an affirmation, than a question] xen can't arbitrarily access *any* physical page because it doesn't map all of physical memory (eg, like linux does from PAGE_OFFSET)? thanks, -A. -- Aaron Marks Distributed Systems Lab University of Pennsylvania www.cis.upenn.edu/~ajmarks "Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government." _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
