Subject: [RFC][PATCH RFC 10/12] KVM: move dirty bitmaps to user space

From: Takuya Yoshikawa <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 4 May 2010 22:07:02 +0900

We move dirty bitmaps to user space.

 - Allocation and destruction: we use do_mmap() and do_munmap().
   The new bitmap space is twice longer than the original one and we
   use the additional space for double buffering: this makes it
   possible to update the active bitmap while letting the user space
   read the other one safely. For x86, we can also remove the vmalloc()
   in kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log().

 - Bitmap manipulations: we replace all functions which access dirty
   bitmaps with *_user() functions.

 - For ia64: moving the dirty bitmaps of memory slots does not affect
   ia64 much because it's using a different place to store dirty logs
   rather than the dirty bitmaps of memory slots: all we have to change
   are sync and get of dirty log, so we don't need set_bit_user like
   functions for ia64.
