Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH v4 07/39] arm/p2m: Move hostp2m init/teardown to individual functions
Hi Sergej,
On 30/08/17 19:32, Sergej Proskurin wrote:
This commit pulls out generic init/teardown functionality out of
"p2m_init" and "p2m_teardown" into "p2m_init_one", "p2m_teardown_one",
and "p2m_flush_table" functions. This allows our future implementation
to reuse existing code for the initialization/teardown of altp2m views.
You likely want to expand the commit message here to explain:
1) Why you export the functions
2) How come you split p2m_teardown is now also flushing the tables...
Very likely 2) should be a separate patch as it is an addition of the
code and not a split.

v2: Added the function p2m_flush_table to the previous version.
v3: Removed struct vttbr.
Moved define INVALID_VTTBR to p2m.h.
Exported function prototypes of "p2m_flush_table", "p2m_init_one",
and "p2m_teardown_one" in p2m.h.
Extended the function "p2m_flush_table" by additionally resetting
the fields lowest_mapped_gfn and max_mapped_gfn.
Added a "p2m_flush_tlb" call in "p2m_flush_table". On altp2m reset
in function "altp2m_reset", it is important to flush the TLBs after
clearing the root table pages and before clearing the intermediate
altp2m page tables to prevent illegal access to stalled TLB entries
on currently active VCPUs.
Added a check checking whether p2m->root is NULL in p2m_flush_table.
Renamed the function "p2m_free_one" to "p2m_teardown_one".
Removed resetting p2m->vttbr in "p2m_teardown_one", as it the p2m
will be destroyed afterwards.
Moved call to "p2m_alloc_table" back to "p2m_init_one".
Moved the introduction of the type p2m_class_t out of this patch.
Moved the backpointer to the struct domain out of the struct
p2m_domain.
v4: Replaced the former use of clear_and_clean_page in p2m_flush_table
by a routine that invalidates every p2m entry atomically. This
avoids inconsistencies on CPUs that continue to use the views that
are to be flushed (e.g., see altp2m_reset).
Removed unnecessary initializations in the functions "p2m_init_one"
and "p2m_teardown_one".
Removed the define INVALID_VTTBR as it is not used any more.
Cosmetic fixes.

When I read this comment, I wonder how this is safe to clear without any
locking? At least to prevent multiple instance to modify the P2M at the
same time. If you expect the caller to do it for you, then an
ASSERT(...) is necessary at the beginning of the function.
Likely you want this function do the locking.
Also that comment is more suitable on top of the for loop rather than here.

You still haven't address my comment regarding the overhead you
introduce whilst tearing down a P2M (e.g when the domain is destroyed).

Again, this is called by p2m_flush_table where the P2M may not have been
allocated because the initialization failed. So trying to flush TLB may
lead to a panic in Xen (the vttbr is invalid).
Furthermore we already flush the TLBs when creating the domain (see
p2m_alloc_table). So you add yet another overhead.

This is a bit odd to read given the VMID is per P2M. Likely you want
