I think that can only happen if a pbp is created, then the ramblock it was in is unplugged, then another ramblock is plugged in covering the same address and with a different (host) page size. Which is unlikely but possible, IIUC. However, also possible and marginally less unlikely is to plug a new block of the same page size, in which case this *will* match, but presumably the pbp should still be discarded. > } > > static void balloon_inflate_page(VirtIOBalloon *balloon, > MemoryRegion *mr, hwaddr mr_offset) > { > void *addr = memory_region_get_ram_ptr(mr) + mr_offset; > - ram_addr_t rb_offset, rb_aligned_offset; > + ram_addr_t rb_offset, rb_aligned_offset, base_gpa; > RAMBlock *rb; > size_t rb_page_size; > int subpages; > @@ -81,32 +89,32 @@ static void balloon_inflate_page(VirtIOBalloon *balloon, > > rb_aligned_offset = QEMU_ALIGN_DOWN(rb_offset, rb_page_size); > subpages = rb_page_size / BALLOON_PAGE_SIZE; > + base_gpa = memory_region_get_ram_addr(mr) + mr_offset - > + (rb_offset - rb_aligned_offset); > > - if (balloon->pbp > - && (rb != balloon->pbp->rb > - || rb_aligned_offset != balloon->pbp->base)) { > + if (virtio_balloon_pbp_valid(balloon) && > + !virtio_balloon_pbp_matches(balloon, base_gpa, subpages)) { > /* We've partially ballooned part of a host page, but now > * we're trying to balloon part of a different one.

Why should it be discarded? The guest didn't deflate, so if we drop the backing page, it works as expected. If the guest deflated, the pbp would be discarded. Please note that this will not happen in real life (Linux): Before we unplug a DIMM, the guest has to offline that memory. Offlining means evacuating all pages that are not free (Buddy). Balloon-inflated pages are treated like allocated pages, so the balloon pages will have to be moved to a different location (inflate new + deflate old). At this point, we had a deflate on the page and dropped the pbp. If the guest would be reusing memory (after unplug/replug) and leave parts of the memory inflated, it would be expected that something goes wrong - especially, also the balloon stats would be most probably wrong. Using ramblock notifiers, we could discard the pbp in case a new block is added/removed, however I am not convinced that this is really needed. However, there is (yet) another related issue with PBP. In QEMU, we don't set #define VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_MUST_TELL_HOST 0 /* Tell before reclaiming pages */ Which means it would right now be valid for the guest to reuse pages tracked in the PBP without deflating (although Linux always tells the host). This could result in stale PBP data. We really should be setting VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_MUST_TELL_HOST.

More than that, anything using PBP is already corrupting guest memory with legacy guests (before 3.0). Well given it's also corrupting host memory, I'm not sure whether we should care ... > -- > > Thanks, > > David / dhildenb

Using the address of a RAMBlock to test for a matching pbp is not really safe. Instead, let's use the guest physical address of the base page along with the page size (via the number of subpages). While at it, move "struct PartiallyBalloonedPage" to virtio-balloon.h now (previously most probably avoided to te the ramblock), renaming it. Also, let's only dynamically allocating the bitmap. This makes the code easier to read and maintain - we can reuse bitmap_new().
