Re: [Xen-users] Mapping GPIO ports to domU
Hi Ian,
Thank you. Yeah I am talking about MMIO registers & x86 I/O ports. I am new to xen, can you tell me bit clearly or if there is any document link which explain more about iomem and ioport configurations. Basically MMIO GPIO port is accessible at physical address 0xfed80000. I want to map this address directly to domU, I am okay even page exposes other registers as of now. Thanks in advance.

It's not clear to me if you are talking about MMIO registers or X86 I/O
address space ports.
With xl you can use "ioports = [...]" and "iomem = [...]" in your domain
configuration. IIRC xend only supported ioports.
iomem only works at the page granularity though, so if you use that you
will be exposing the entire page containing the ports, which may be a
problem depending on what shares that page. If you can use the I/O
address space to access these registers that would probably be
preferable for that reason.
Ian.
