Re: [Xen-devel] [Q] mfn_to_gmfn macro, log-dirty bitmap,

[Min Lee <min.lee@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, thanks, but I don't understand.

dinfo->p2m_size:67584,
(XEN) addr:bff25000 accessible, mfn:5f8eb, gmfn:5f8eb
(XEN) addr:bff26000 accessible, mfn:6e003, gmfn:6e003
(XEN) addr:bff27000 accessible, mfn:425da, gmfn:425da

This domain has 256MB ram (67584 frames, slightly more than 65536) as 
p2m_size indicates, and I have dirty-bit bitmap which I believe has 67584 
bits. but In this case above, three frames has mfn of 0x5f8eb, 0x6e003, 
0x425da which I cannot use as index in my dirt_bit bitmap.
I understand PV guest directly use mfn into page table entry, but regarding 
log-dirt-bit  bitmap, I think I need gmfn index here.
Am I misunderstanding something?
What I'm doing is to read dirty bit for my virtual frame. so I need know 
which bit in log-dirty bit corresponds to my virtual frame.
Thanks
Min
