Sorry, I actually meant get/put_page_from_l1e(). Does that make the

That would be sensible ;-) I think we need to add an extra parameter to
those to specify the context (guest or shadow, for example) rather than
who's calling.

Since it's just get/put_page_from_l1e I think we should just duplicate the required bits in the shadow code. Could the required parts be merged into shadow_get/put_page_from_l1e()? For example, non of the I/O-page mapping stuff is needed at all yet. We could for now BUG_ON !valid_mfn() and flags in L1_DISALLOW_MASK.

Could you split your original patch into the updated changes to shadow mode, and a separate patch for the actual mapcache logic?
