Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH 06/12] xen/arm: mm: Sanity check any update of Xen page tables



Hi,

Shouldn't it be `(flags & (_PAGE_PRESENT|_PAGE_POPULATE)) == 0` ? As I understand from the patch 04, we do remove a page when we do unset both flags.

Hmmm, yes. I will update in the next version.


BTW, I would suggest patches reordering in this series. This patch should go right after the patch 04, where you introduce those flags. Because here you implement their usage. But somewhy you inserted an unrelated change in between.

It is not unrelated, the patch is necessary to make this patch works. Otherwise you will hit the ASSERT(mfn_eq(mfn, INVALID_MFN)) after one iteration.

Cheers,
