This is unclear and... maybe wrong.


I will change this as follows:
---
  hva_start = max(start, memslot->userspace_addr);
  hva_end = min(end, memslot->userspace_addr +
                          (memslot->npages << PAGE_SHIFT));
  if (hva_start >= hva_end)
          continue;
  /*
   * { gfn(page) | page intersects with [hva_start, hva_end) }
   * = [gfn_start, gfn_end).
   */
  gfn_start = hva_to_gfn_memslot(hva_start, memslot);
  gfn_end = hva_to_gfn_memslot(hva_end + PAGE_SIZE-1, memslot);

  for (j = PT_PAGE_TABLE_LEVEL;
       j < PT_PAGE_TABLE_LEVEL + KVM_NR_PAGE_SIZES; ++j) {
          unsigned long idx, idx_end;
          unsigned long *rmapp; 
          /*
           * { idx(page_j) | page_j intersects with [hva_start, hva_end) }
           * = [idx, idx_end].
           */
          idx = gfn_to_index(gfn_start, memslot->base_gfn, j);
          idx_end = gfn_to_index(gfn_end - 1, memslot->base_gfn, j);

          rmapp = __gfn_to_rmap(gfn_start, j, memslot);

          for (; idx <= idx_end; ++idx) {
                  ret |= handler(kvm, rmapp++, data);
          }
  }
---

This way, much clearly, we can handle exactly same rmaps as before.

I also need to change ppc code as well in patch 3.

Thanks,
