[Xen-devel] [PATCH 0 of 5] update xenctx to dump pagetables

[Olaf Hering <olaf@xxxxxxxxx>]

The following series adds an option -P to xenctx to dump the guests pagetable.
Another option to work an all vcpus is also added.

The reason for such a change is that on some systems a live migration from a
system with a small amount of memory to a system with a huge amount of memory
(>100GB) fails. DomU crashes on the target.
To get some debug data I'm trying to dump the pagetable, just to verify that
nothing bad to them happend during transit.

The code to walk the pagetables is/was based on
xc_translate_foreign_address(), but I still think I have some major bugs in
there (the last patch). I cant figure out why some l3/l2/l1 entries can not be 
mapped.
Any help with getting that output fixed for at least a a 64bit PV guest is much
appreciated.
