From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <dgilb...@redhat.com> Hi, This patch set reworks the way the vhost code handles changes in physical address space layout that came from a discussion with Igor.
Its intention is to simplify a lot of the update code, and to make it easier for the postcopy+shared code to do the hugepage alignments that are needed. Instead of updating and trying to merge sections of address space on each add/remove callback, we wait until the commit phase and go through and rebuild a list by walking the Flatview of memory and end up producing an ordered list. We compare the list to the old list to trigger updates. v3 Fix misordered comparison (that is removed later in the series) A few spelling fixes Now bisect builds, make checks and passes a test with hotlug memory on real vhost.
