+ * GRANT TABLE REPRESENTATION
+ */
+
+/* Some rough guidelines on accessing and updating grant-table entries
+ * in a concurrency-safe manner. For more information, Linux contains a
+ * reference implementation for guest OSes (arch/xen/kernel/grant_table.c).
+ *
+ * NB. WMB is a no-op on current-generation x86 processors. However, a
+ * compiler barrier will still be required.
+ *
+ * Introducing a valid entry into the grant table:
+ * 1. Write ent->domid.
+ * 2. Write ent->frame:
+ * GTF_permit_access: Frame to which access is permitted.
+ * GTF_accept_transfer: Pseudo-phys frame slot being filled by new
+ * frame, or zero if none.
+ * 3. Write memory barrier (WMB).
+ * 4. Write ent->flags, inc. valid type.
+ *
+ * Invalidating an unused GTF_permit_access entry:
+ * 1. flags = ent->flags.
+ * 2. Observe that !(flags & (GTF_reading|GTF_writing)).
+ * 3. Check result of SMP-safe CMPXCHG(&ent->flags, flags, 0).
+ * NB. No need for WMB as reuse of entry is control-dependent on success of
+ * step 3, and all architectures guarantee ordering of ctrl-dep writes.
+ *
+ * Invalidating an in-use GTF_permit_access entry:
+ * This cannot be done directly. Request assistance from the domain controller
+ * which can set a timeout on the use of a grant entry and take necessary
+ * action. (NB. This is not yet implemented!).
+ *
+ * Invalidating an unused GTF_accept_transfer entry:
+ * 1. flags = ent->flags.
+ * 2. Observe that !(flags & GTF_transfer_committed). [*]
+ * 3. Check result of SMP-safe CMPXCHG(&ent->flags, flags, 0).
+ * NB. No need for WMB as reuse of entry is control-dependent on success of
+ * step 3, and all architectures guarantee ordering of ctrl-dep writes.
+ * [*] If GTF_transfer_committed is set then the grant entry is 'committed'.
+ * The guest must /not/ modify the grant entry until the address of the
+ * transferred frame is written. It is safe for the guest to spin waiting
+ * for this to occur (detect by observing GTF_transfer_completed in
+ * ent->flags).
+ *
+ * Invalidating a committed GTF_accept_transfer entry:
+ * 1. Wait for (ent->flags & GTF_transfer_completed).
+ *
+ * Changing a GTF_permit_access from writable to read-only:
+ * Use SMP-safe CMPXCHG to set GTF_readonly, while checking !GTF_writing.
+ *
+ * Changing a GTF_permit_access from read-only to writable:
+ * Use SMP-safe bit-setting instruction.
