As the function document explains, here we want to return true when
ALIGNMENT(offset) >= ALIGNMENT(gpa), so '>=' is what we need.
It's worthy clarifying that in Sean's original suggestion he actually
mentioned the opposite. He said 'reject memslot if the gfn has lesser
alignment than the offset', but I wonder this is his purpose, since
if ALIGNMENT(offset) < ALIGNMENT(gpa), we wouldn't be possible to map
the page as largepage. Consider we have below config:
gpa=2M, offset=1M
In this case KVM tries to map gpa at 2M as 2M hugepage but the physical
page at the offset(1M) in private_fd cannot provide the 2M page due to
misalignment.
But as we discussed in the off-list thread, here we do find a real use
case indicating this check is too strict. i.e. QEMU immediately fails
when launch a guest > 2G memory. For this case QEMU splits guest memory
space into two slots:
Slot#1(ram_below_4G): gpa=0x0, offset=0x0, size=2G
Slot#2(ram_above_4G): gpa=4G, offset=2G, size=totalsize-2G
This strict alignment check fails for slot#2 because offset(2G) has less
alignment than gpa(4G). To allow this, one solution can revert to my
previous change in kvm_alloc_memslot_metadata() to disallow hugepage
only when the offset/gpa are not aligned to related page size.
Sean, How do you think?
