                                Hi,
                                
                                    For I want to translate the 
virtual address in HVM DomU to virtual address in Xen. But when I use the 
function paging_gva_to_gfn and get_gfn, I can feel the performance down 
quickly, the machine become very hot and then I have to force the machine 
shutting down.
                                
                
                
                Your machine clearly isn't cooled sufficiently, which is 
the first problem.
                
                
                        
                                
                                The codes I used as below:
                                    uint32_t pfec = 
PFEC_page_present;
                                    unsigned long gfn;
                                    unsigned long mfn;
                                    unsigned long virtaddr;
                                    struct vcpu *vcpu = current;
                                    struct domain *d = 
vcpu->domain;
                                
                                    gfn = 
paging_gva_to_gfn(current, 0xc0290000, &pfec);
                                    mfn = get_gfn(d, gfn, 
&t);
                                    virtaddr = 
map_domain_page(mfn_x(mfn));
                                
                                I also use the dbg_hvm_va2mfn function in 
debug.c, performance problem still present.
                                
                
                
                Walking pagetables in software is slow.  There is no 
getting around this.
                
                Your performance problems will be caused by performing the 
operation far too often.  You should find a way to reduce this.
                
                
                
                
                Thanks very much, I think I only do this for just once. And 
after the thanslation is done, the performance is not turn to normal. Does that 
mean that if I wait long enough it will recovery?


It almost certainly means you are not doing it just once like you suppose.

    Yes, you are right. I added printk in get_gfn and found it 
was call many times. I'll check why that happens. Thanks a lot!
