[PATCH v2 03/20] xen/grant: Introduce helpers to split a page into grant

Thu Jul 9 13:42:15 PDT 2015


Currently, a grant is always based on the Xen page granularity (i.e
4KB). When Linux is using a different page granularity, a single page
will be split between multiple grants.

The new helpers will be in charge to split the Linux page into grant and
call a function given by the caller on each grant.

In order to help some PV drivers, the callback is allowed to use less
data and must update the resulting length. This is useful for netback.

Also provide and helper to count the number of grants within a given
contiguous region.
