From: David Stevens <stevensd@chromium.org>

Return a struct kvm_pfn_page containing both a pfn and an optional
struct page from the gfn_to_pfn family of functions. This differentiates
the gup and follow_fault_pfn cases, which allows callers that only need
a pfn to avoid touching the page struct in the latter case. For callers
that need a struct page, introduce a helper function that unwraps a
struct kvm_pfn_page into a struct page. This helper makes the call to
kvm_get_pfn which had previously been in hva_to_pfn_remapped.

For now, wrap all calls to gfn_to_pfn functions in the new helper
function. Callers which don't need the page struct will be updated in
follow-up patches.

Hmm. You mean callers that do need the page will be updated? Normally 
if there will be leftover users that don't need the struct page then
you would go the other way and keep the old call the same, and add a new
one (gfn_to_pfn_page) just for those that need it.

Most kernel code I look at passes back multiple values by updating 
pointers to struct or variables rather than returning a struct, I 
suppose that's not really a big deal and a matter of taste.

Thanks,
Nick

I'd really like to see a tiny bit of documentation explaining that
calls to kvm_pfn_page_unwrap() are not idempotent.

Otherwise, looks good to me.

Thanks,

Needing kvm_pfn_page_unwrap is a sign that something might be buggy, so 
it's a good idea to move the short name to the common case and the ugly 
kvm_pfn_page_unwrap(gfn_to_pfn(...)) for the weird one.  In fact I'm not 
sure there should be any kvm_pfn_page_unwrap in the end.

If all callers were updated that is one thing, but from the changelog
it sounds like that would not happen and there would be some gfn_to_pfn
users left over.

But yes in the end you would either need to make gfn_to_pfn never return
a page found via follow_pte, or change all callers to the new way. If 
the plan is for the latter then I guess that's fine.

Thanks,
Nick

In this patches there are, so yeah the plan is to always change the 
callers to the new way.

Actually in that case anyway I don't see the need -- the existence of
gfn_to_pfn is enough to know it might be buggy. It can just as easily
be grepped for as kvm_pfn_page_unwrap. And are gfn_to_page cases also
vulernable to the same issue?

So I think it could be marked deprecated or something if not everything 
will be converted in the one series, and don't need to touch all that 
arch code with this patch.

Thanks,
Nick

Sure, but that would leave us with longer function names 
(gfn_to_pfn_page* instead of gfn_to_pfn*).  So the "safe" use is the one 
that looks worse and the unsafe use is the one that looks safe.

> And are gfn_to_page cases also

No, they're just broken for the VM_IO|VM_PFNMAP case.

The churn isn't justified because of function name length. Choose g2pp() 
if you want a non-descriptive but short name.

The existing name isn't good anyway because it not only looks up a pfn 
but also a page, and more importantly it gets a ref on the page. The
name should be changed if you introduce a new API.

No they aren't vulnerable, or they are vunlerable but also broken in 
other cases?
