Hi,

Thanks a lot to all of you for your previous replies. That helped me a lot in understanding the code. I still have some queries.

Can you please tell me how is Shadow Page Table generated/maintained? What is the flow for the page fault handler of VMM in context of x86_64 (Intel EM64T)?

If possible, please tell me the code flow related to shadow page table handling in XEN.

I have gone through the links you sent earlier as well as some of the code files especially through following:

xen\arch\x86\mm\shadow\multi.c xen\arch\x86\mm\shadow\common.c xen\arch\x86\mm\mm.c

But I have not been able to establish the code flow based on Intel EM64T. Regards, Sameer

Although the website seems to be down right now, the student project here: http://www.cs.aau.dk/library/cgi-bin/detail.cgi?id=1136884892 actually has a pretty good explanation of xen memory management. It will get you started before looking at the code at least.
