I thought up a better solution:
1. Separate rmap_pde from lpage_info->write_count and
make this a simple array. (I once tried this.)
2. Use gfn_to_index() and loop over rmap array:
...
/* intersection check */
start = max(start, memslot->userspace_addr);
end = min(end, memslot->userspace_addr +
(memslot->npages << PAGE_SHIFT));
if (start > end)
continue;
/* hva to gfn conversion */
gfn_start = hva_to_gfn_memslot(start);
gfn_end = hva_to_gfn_memslot(end);
/* main part */
for each level {
rmapp = __gfn_to_rmap(gfn_start, level, memslot);
for (idx = gfn_to_index(gfn_start, memslot->base_gfn, level);
idx < gfn_to_index(gfn_end, memslot->base_gfn, level); idx++) {
...
/* loop over rmap array */
ret |= handler(kvm, rmapp + idx, data);
}
}
Thanks,
