The Xen mapcache is able to create long term mappings, they are called "locked" mappings. The third parameter of the xen_map_cache call specifies if a mapping is a "locked" mapping. >From the QEMU point of view there are two kinds of long term mappings: [a] device memory mappings, such as option roms and video memory [b] dma mappings, created by dma_memory_map & friends After certain operations, ballooning a VM in particular, Xen asks QEMU kindly to destroy all mappings. However, certainly [a] mappings are present and cannot be removed. That's not a problem as they are not affected by balloonning. The *real* problem is that if there are any mappings of type [b], any outstanding dma operations could fail. This is a known shortcoming. In other words, when Xen asks QEMU to destroy all mappings, it is an error if any [b] mappings exist. However today we have no way of distinguishing [a] from [b]. Because of that, we cannot even print a decent warning. This patch introduces a new "dma" bool field to MapCacheRev entires, to remember if a given mapping is for dma or is a long term device memory mapping. When xen_invalidate_map_cache is called, we print a warning if any [b] mappings exist. We ignore [a] mappings. Mappings created by qemu_map_ram_ptr are assumed to be [a], while mappings created by address_space_map->qemu_ram_ptr_length are assumed to be [b]. The goal of the patch is to make debugging and system understanding easier.
