[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v3 03/28] drm/i915/gvt: Verify hugepages are contiguous in physical address space

[Yan Zhao]

hi Sean

Do you think it's necessary to double check that struct page pointers
are also contiguous?

And do you like to also include a fix as below, which is to remove the
warning in vfio_device_container_unpin_pages() when npage is 0?

@ -169,7 +173,8 @@ static int gvt_pin_guest_page(struct intel_vgpu *vgpu, unsigned long gfn,
        *page = base_page;
        return 0;
 err:
-       gvt_unpin_guest_page(vgpu, gfn, npage * PAGE_SIZE);
+       if (npage)
+               gvt_unpin_guest_page(vgpu, gfn, npage * PAGE_SIZE);
        return ret;
 }

BTW, I've sent a separate fix for vfio_iommu_type1_pin_pages() to ensure
struct page is a valid address.
