Actually I think we get away with it if it is guaranteed that: pfn_pdx_bottom_mask >= (1<<MAX_ORDER)-1 I don't see that this is guaranteed by pfn_pdx_hole_setup() but it would be easy to do, have no real harm on the technique's space saving, and I think then all of our existing page_info pointer arithmetic would be guaranteed to just work as it always has done. Anyway, need to know if you have the line about "PFN compression" in your 'xm dmesg' boot output. -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
