Xiao Guangrong Nov. 30, 2015, 6:26 p.m. UTC
The array, gfn_track[mode][gfn], is introduced in memory slot for every
guest page, this is the tracking count for the gust page on different
modes. If the page is tracked then the count is increased, the page is
not tracked after the count reaches zero

Two callbacks, kvm_page_track_create_memslot() and
kvm_page_track_free_memslot() are implemented in this patch, they are
internally used to initialize and reclaim the memory of the array

Currently, only write track mode is supported

Hi Guangrong,

I am starting to review this series, and should have some comments or 
questions, you can determine whether they are valuable :)

See  below.

Is it necessary to use the 'unsigned long npages' pareameter? In my 
understanding you are going to track all GFNs in the memory slot anyway, 
right? If you want to keep npages, I think it's better to add a base_gfn 
as well otherwise you are assuming you are going to track the npages GFN 
starting from slot->base_gfn.

Looks essentially you are allocating one int for all GFNs of the slot 
unconditionally. In my understanding for most of memory slots, we are 
not going to track them, so isn't it going to be wasteful of memory?

Thanks,

Thank you very much for your review and breaking the silent on this patchset. ;)

The type, 'int', is used here as I followed the style of 'struct kvm_lpage_info'.

4 bytes should be enough to track all users and signed type is good to track
overflow.

Yes, any page in the memslot may be tracked so that there is a index for every
page.

Yes, hmm... maybe we can make the index as "unsigned short" then 1G memory only needs 512k index
buffer. It is not so unacceptable.

Those comments are really minor and don't bother on this :)
