Migration stream V2 uses a 64 bit value for this purpose, so there is no need to refuse saving (or migrating) domains larger than 1 TB. For 32 bit toolstacks there is still a size limit, as domains larger than about 1TB will lead to an exhausted virtual address space of the saving process. So keep the test for 32 bit, but don't base it on the page type macros. As a migration could lead to the situation where a 32 bit toolstack would have to handle such a large domain (in case the sending side is 64 bit) the same test should be added for restoring a domain. Signed-off-by: Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx>I will leave this to Andrew. I don't really have an opinion here.I will wait Andrew feedback before giving a release ack on this patch.Andrew?Sorry - this completely fell off my radar. This is probably fine overall.Julien, are you fine with the patch now?I don't see any formal ack on this patch. Can we get one?Acked-by: Wei Liu <wei.liu2@xxxxxxxxxx> Release-acked-by: Julien Grall <julien.grall@xxxxxxxxxx> Cheers, -- Julien Grall _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
