- * MMU-UPDATE REQUESTS
- *
- * HYPERVISOR_mmu_update() accepts a list of (ptr, val) pairs.
- * A foreigndom (FD) can be specified (or DOMID_SELF for none).
- * Where the FD has some effect, it is described below.
- * ptr[1:0] specifies the appropriate MMU_* command.
+ * enum neg_errnoval HYPERVISOR_mmu_update(const struct mmu_update reqs[],
+ * unsigned count, unsigned *done_out,
+ * unsigned foreigndom)
+ * @reqs is an array of mmu_update_t structures ((ptr, val) pairs).
+ * @count is the length of the above array.
+ * @pdone is an output parameter indicating number of completed operations
+ * @foreigndom[15:0]: FD, the expected owner of data pages referenced in this
+ * hypercall invocation. Can be DOMID_SELF.
+ * @foreigndom[31:16]: PFD, the expected owner of pagetable pages referenced
+ * in this hypercall invocation. The value of this field
+ * (x) encodes the PFD as follows:
+ * x == 0 => PFD == DOMID_SELF
+ * x != 0 => PFD == x - 1
*
+ * Sub-commands: ptr[1:0] specifies the appropriate MMU_* command.
+ * -------------
* ptr[1:0] == MMU_NORMAL_PT_UPDATE:
- * Updates an entry in a page table. If updating an L1 table, and the new
- * table entry is valid/present, the mapped frame must belong to the FD, if
- * an FD has been specified. If attempting to map an I/O page then the
- * caller assumes the privilege of the FD.
+ * Updates an entry in a page table belonging to PFD. If updating an L1 table,
+ * and the new table entry is valid/present, the mapped frame must belong to
+ * FD. If attempting to map an I/O page then the caller assumes the privilege
+ * of the FD.
* FD == DOMID_IO: Permit /only/ I/O mappings, at the priv level of the caller.
* FD == DOMID_XEN: Map restricted areas of Xen's heap space.
* ptr[:2] -- Machine address of the page-table entry to modify.
* val -- Value to write.
*
+ * There also certain implicit requirements when using this hypercall. The
+ * pages that make up a pagetable must be mapped read-only in the guest.
+ * This prevents uncontrolled guest updates to the pagetable. Xen strictly
+ * enforces this, and will disallow any pagetable update which will end up
+ * mapping pagetable page RW, and will disallow using any writable page as a
+ * pagetable. In practice it means that when constructing a page table for a
+ * process, thread, etc, we MUST be very dilligient in following these rules:
+ * 1). Start with top-level page (PGD or in Xen language: L4). Fill out
+ * the entries.
+ * 2). Keep on going, filling out the upper (PUD or L3), and middle (PMD
+ * or L2).
+ * 3). Start filling out the PTE table (L1) with the PTE entries. Once
+ * done, make sure to set each of those entries to RO (so writeable bit
+ * is unset). Once that has been completed, set the PMD (L2) for this
+ * PTE table as RO.
+ * 4). When completed with all of the PMD (L2) entries, and all of them have
+ * been set to RO, make sure to set RO the PUD (L3). Do the same
+ * operation on PGD (L4) pagetable entries that have a PUD (L3) entry.
+ * 5). Now before you can use those pages (so setting the cr3), you MUST also
+ * pin them so that the hypervisor can verify the entries. This is done
+ * via the HYPERVISOR_mmuext_op(MMUEXT_PIN_L4_TABLE, guest physical frame
+ * number of the PGD (L4)). And this point the HYPERVISOR_mmuext_op(
+ * MMUEXT_NEW_BASEPTR, guest physical frame number of the PGD (L4)) can be
+ * issued.
+ * For 32-bit guests, the L4 is not used (as there is less pagetables), so
+ * instead use L3.
+ * At this point the pagetables can be modified using the MMU_NORMAL_PT_UPDATE
+ * hypercall. Also if so desired the OS can also try to write to the PTE
+ * and be trapped by the hypervisor (as the PTE entry is RO).
+ *
+ * To deallocate the pages, the operations are the reverse of the steps
+ * mentioned above. The argument is MMUEXT_UNPIN_TABLE for all levels and the
+ * pagetable MUST not be in use (meaning that the cr3 is not set to it).
+ *
* ptr[1:0] == MMU_MACHPHYS_UPDATE:
* Updates an entry in the machine->pseudo-physical mapping table.
* ptr[:2] -- Machine address within the frame whose mapping to modify.

* ptr[1:0] == MMU_PT_UPDATE_PRESERVE_AD:
* As MMU_NORMAL_PT_UPDATE above, but A/D bits currently in the PTE are ORed
* with those in @val.
+ *
+ * @val is usually the machine frame number along with some attributes.
+ * The attributes by default follow the architecture defined bits. Meaning that
+ * if this is a X86_64 machine and four page table layout is used, the layout
+ * of val is:
+ * - 63 if set means No execute (NX)
+ * - 46-13 the machine frame number
+ * - 12 available for guest
+ * - 11 available for guest
+ * - 10 available for guest
+ * - 9 available for guest
+ * - 8 global
+ * - 7 PAT (PSE is disabled, must use hypercall to make 4MB or 2MB pages)
+ * - 6 dirty
+ * - 5 accessed
+ * - 4 page cached disabled
+ * - 3 page write through
+ * - 2 userspace accessible
+ * - 1 writeable
+ * - 0 present
+ *
+ * The one bits that does not fit with the default layout is the PAGE_PSE
+ * also called PAGE_PAT). The MMUEXT_[UN]MARK_SUPER arguments to the
+ * HYPERVISOR_mmuext_op serve as mechanism to set a pagetable to be 4MB
+ * (or 2MB) instead of using the PAGE_PSE bit.
+ *
+ * The reason that the PAGE_PSE (bit 7) is not being utilized is due to Xen
+ * using it as the Page Attribute Table (PAT) bit - for details on it please
+ * refer to Intel SDM 10.12. The PAT allows to set the caching attributes of
+ * pages instead of using MTRRs.
+ *
+ * The PAT MSR is as follows (it is a 64-bit value, each entry is 8 bits):
+ * PAT4 PAT0
+ * +-----+-----+----+----+----+-----+----+----+
+ * | UC | UC- | WC | WB | UC | UC- | WC | WB | <= Linux
+ * +-----+-----+----+----+----+-----+----+----+
+ * | UC | UC- | WT | WB | UC | UC- | WT | WB | <= BIOS (default when machine boots)
+ * +-----+-----+----+----+----+-----+----+----+
+ * | rsv | rsv | WP | WC | UC | UC- | WT | WB | <= Xen
+ * +-----+-----+----+----+----+-----+----+----+
+ *
+ * The lookup of this index table translates to looking up
+ * Bit 7, Bit 4, and Bit 3 of val entry:
+ *
+ * PAT/PSE (bit 7) ... PCD (bit 4) .. PWT (bit 3).
+ *
+ * If all bits are off, then we are using PAT0. If bit 3 turned on,
+ * then we are using PAT1, if bit 3 and bit 4, then PAT2..
+ *
+ * As you can see, the Linux PAT1 translates to PAT4 under Xen. Which means
+ * that if a guest that follows Linux's PAT setup and would like to set Write
+ * Combined on pages it MUST use PAT4 entry. Meaning that Bit 7 (PAGE_PAT) is
+ * set. For example, under Linux it only uses PAT0, PAT1, and PAT2 for the
+ * caching as:
+ *
+ * WB = none (so PAT0)
+ * WC = PWT (bit 3 on)
+ * UC = PWT | PCD (bit 3 and 4 are on).
+ *
+ * To make it work with Xen, it needs to translate the WC bit as so:
+ *
+ * PWT (so bit 3 on) --> PAT (so bit 7 is on) and clear bit 3
+ *
+ * And to translate back it would:
+ *
+ * PAT (bit 7 on) --> PWT (bit 3 on) and clear bit 7.
