Currently, Xen PT helpers are only working with 4KB page granularity
and open-code the generic helpers. To allow more flexibility, we can
re-use the generic helpers and pass Xen's page granularity
(PAGE_SHIFT).

As Xen PT helpers are used in both C and assembly, we need to move
the generic helpers definition outside of the !__ASSEMBLY__ section.

Note the aliases for each level are still kept for the time being so we
can avoid a massive patch to change all the callers.

The patch is OK as is. I have a couple of suggestions for improvement
below. If you feel like making them, good, otherwise I am also OK if you
don't want to change anything.

Should we add a one-line in-code comment saying that the definitions
below are for 4KB pages? It is not immediately obvious any longer.

I would avoid adding these 4 macros. It would be OK if they were just
used within this file but lpae.h is a header: they could end up be used
anywhere in the xen/ code and they have a very generic name. My
suggestion would be to skip them and just do:

#define THIRD_SHIFT         LEVEL_SHIFT_GS(PAGE_SHIFT, 3)

etc.

Because they are not meant to be for 4KB pages. They are meant to be for 
Xen page size.

Today, it is always 4KB but I would like the Xen code to not rely on that.

I can clarify it in an in-code comment.

Those macros will be used in follow-up patches. They are pretty useful 
to avoid introduce static array with the different information for each 
level.

Would prefix them with XEN_ be better?

That would help I think

Maybe. The concern I have is that there are multiple page granularities
(4kb, 16kb, etc) and multiple page sizes (4kb, 2mb, etc). If I just see
LEVEL_ORDER it is not immediately obvious what granularity and what size
we are talking about.

I think using a name that makes it clear that they are referring to Xen
pages, currently 4kb, it would make sense. Or maybe a in-code comment
would be sufficient.

I don't have a great suggestion here so I'll leave it to you. I am also
OK to keep them as is.

I am a bit puzzled with your answer. AFAIU, you are happy with the 
existing macros (THIRD_*, SECOND_*) but not with the new macros.

In reality, there is no difference because THIRD_* doesn't tell you the 
exact size but only "this is a level 3 mapping".

So can you clarify what you are after? IOW is it reworking the current 
naming scheme?

Cheers,

You are right -- there is no real difference between THIRD_*, SECOND_*
and LEVEL_*.

The original reason for my comments is that I hadn't read the following
patches, and the definition of LEVEL_* macros is simple, they could be
open coded. It looked like they were only going to be used to make the
definition of THIRD_*, SECOND_* a bit easier. So, at first, I was
wondering if they were needed at all.

Secondly, I realized that they were going to be used in *.c files by
other patches. That's why they are there. But I started thinking whether
we should find a way to make it a bit clearer that they are for Xen
pages, currently at 4KB granularity. THIRD_*, SECOND_*, etc. are already
generic names which don't convey the granularity or whether they are Xen
pages at all. But LEVEL_* seem even more generic.

As I mentioned, I don't have any good suggestions for changes to make
here, so unless you can come up with a good idea let's keep it as is.

I am thinking to use the following naming (diff on top of this patch):

-#define LPAE_SHIFT          LPAE_SHIFT_GS(PAGE_SHIFT)
-#define LPAE_ENTRIES        LPAE_ENTRIES_GS(PAGE_SHIFT)
-#define LPAE_ENTRY_MASK     LPAE_ENTRY_MASK_GS(PAGE_SHIFT)
+#define XEN_PT_SHIFT          LPAE_SHIFT_GS(PAGE_SHIFT)
+#define XEN_PT_ENTRIES        LPAE_ENTRIES_GS(PAGE_SHIFT)
+#define XEN_PT_ENTRY_MASK     LPAE_ENTRY_MASK_GS(PAGE_SHIFT)

-#define LEVEL_SHIFT(lvl)    LEVEL_SHIFT_GS(PAGE_SHIFT, lvl)
-#define LEVEL_ORDER(lvl)    LEVEL_ORDER_GS(PAGE_SHIFT, lvl)
-#define LEVEL_SIZE(lvl)     LEVEL_SIZE_GS(PAGE_SHIFT, lvl)
-#define LEVEL_MASK(lvl)     (~(LEVEL_SIZE(lvl) - 1))
+#define XEN_PT_LEVEL_SHIFT(lvl)    LEVEL_SHIFT_GS(PAGE_SHIFT, lvl)
+#define XEN_PT_LEVEL_ORDER(lvl)    LEVEL_ORDER_GS(PAGE_SHIFT, lvl)
+#define XEN_PT_LEVEL_SIZE(lvl)     LEVEL_SIZE_GS(PAGE_SHIFT, lvl)
+#define XEN_PT_LEVEL_MASK(lvl)     (~(LEVEL_SIZE(lvl) - 1))

  /* Convenience aliases */
-#define THIRD_SHIFT         LEVEL_SHIFT(3)
-#define THIRD_ORDER         LEVEL_ORDER(3)
-#define THIRD_SIZE          LEVEL_SIZE(3)
-#define THIRD_MASK          LEVEL_MASK(3)
-
-#define SECOND_SHIFT        LEVEL_SHIFT(2)
-#define SECOND_ORDER        LEVEL_ORDER(2)
-#define SECOND_SIZE         LEVEL_SIZE(2)
-#define SECOND_MASK         LEVEL_MASK(2)
-
-#define FIRST_SHIFT         LEVEL_SHIFT(1)
-#define FIRST_ORDER         LEVEL_ORDER(1)
-#define FIRST_SIZE          LEVEL_SIZE(1)
-#define FIRST_MASK          LEVEL_MASK(1)
-
-#define ZEROETH_SHIFT       LEVEL_SHIFT(0)
-#define ZEROETH_ORDER       LEVEL_ORDER(0)
-#define ZEROETH_SIZE        LEVEL_SIZE(0)
-#define ZEROETH_MASK        LEVEL_MASK(0)
+#define THIRD_SHIFT         XEN_PT_LEVEL_SHIFT(3)
+#define THIRD_ORDER         XEN_PT_LEVEL_ORDER(3)
+#define THIRD_SIZE          XEN_PT_LEVEL_SIZE(3)
+#define THIRD_MASK          XEN_PT_LEVEL_MASK(3)
+
+#define SECOND_SHIFT        XEN_PT_LEVEL_SHIFT(2)
+#define SECOND_ORDER        XEN_PT_LEVEL_ORDER(2)
+#define SECOND_SIZE         XEN_PT_LEVEL_SIZE(2)
+#define SECOND_MASK         XEN_PT_LEVEL_MASK(2)
+
+#define FIRST_SHIFT         XEN_PT_LEVEL_SHIFT(1)
+#define FIRST_ORDER         XEN_PT_LEVEL_ORDER(1)
+#define FIRST_SIZE          XEN_PT_LEVEL_SIZE(1)
+#define FIRST_MASK          XEN_PT_LEVEL_MASK(1)
+
+#define ZEROETH_SHIFT       XEN_PT_LEVEL_SHIFT(0)
+#define ZEROETH_ORDER       XEN_PT_LEVEL_ORDER(0)
+#define ZEROETH_SIZE        XEN_PT_LEVEL_SIZE(0)
+#define ZEROETH_MASK        XEN_PT_LEVEL_MASK(0)

I don't plan to modify the nameing for ZEROETH*, FIRST*, SECOND*, THIRD*.

Let me know if you prefer it over the currrent naming.
