[PATCH] mem_sharing: map shared_info page to same gfn during fork
Posted by Tamas K Lengyel 3 years, 11 months ago
During a VM fork we copy the shared_info page; however, we also need to ensure
that the page is mapped into the same GFN in the fork as its in the parent.

I think you need to compare the parent shared info gfn against the
child shared info gfn, in case the child has mapped the shared info
but the parent doesn't have it mapped. In which case you want to
remove the mapping when doing a fork reset.

You can then remove the last condition in this if.

And this should then be if ( !gfn_eq(old_gfn, INVALID_GFN) ) ...

Thanks, Roger.
