| Thread-topic: | Glossary of Xen terms? Common recipes? |
Reading the following left me longing for a glossary or Xen terms and acronyms, is their one?
> xc_map_foreign_* functions all actually take 'gmfn' -- that is the
> guest-apparent machine address. Paravirtualised guests usually see
> machine
> addresses, so gmfn==mfn. HVM guests have the translation done for
> them by
> the hypervisor, so they see gmfn==gpfn (guest pseudophysical frame
> number).
> Function prototypes and comments in xenctrl.h have unfortuantely
> not been
> updated to reflect this change.
Additionally, is there a list of “common recipes” for tasks such as sharing memory with HVM guests? Adding devices to qemu-dm, or modifications to the rombios?
Thank you,
John
