Currently, a grant is always based on the Xen page granularity (i.e 4KB). When Linux is using a different page granularity, a single page will be split between multiple grants. The new helpers will be in charge to split the Linux page into grants and call a function given by the caller on each grant. Also provide an helper to count the number of grants within a given contiguous region. Note that the x86/include/asm/xen/page.h is now including xen/interface/grant_table.h rather than xen/grant_table.h. It's necessary because xen/grant_table.h depends on asm/xen/page.h and will break the compilation. Furthermore, only definition in interface/grant_table.h was required.Reviewed-by: David Vrabel <redacted> But...quoted
+/* Helper to get to call fn only on the first "grant chunk" */ +static inline void gnttab_one_grant(struct page *page, unsigned int offset, + unsigned len, xen_grant_fn_t fn, + void *data)...call this gnttab_for_one_grant().
Will rename it on the next version. Regards, -- Julien Grall
