Commit fc087e1073 (xen/events: remove
unnecessary init_evtchn_cpu_bindings()) causes a regression.
The kernel-side VCPU binding was not being correctly set for newly
allocated or bound interdomain events. In ARM guests where 2-level
events were used, this would result in no interdomain events being
handled because the kernel-side VCPU masks would all be clear.
x86 guests would work because the irq affinity was set during irq
setup and this would set the correct kernel-side VCPU binding.
Fix this by properly initializing the kernel-side VCPU binding in
bind_evtchn_to_irq().

During bootup in the 'probe_page_size_mask' these CR4 flags are
set in there. But for AP processors they are not set as we do not
use 'secondary_startup_64' which the baremetal kernels uses.
Instead do it in this function which we use in Xen PVH during our
startup for AP processors.
As such fix it up to make sure we have that flag set.

Current xen-selfballoon driver is too aggressive which may cause OOM be
triggered more often. Eg. this bug reported by James:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/11/21/158
There are two mainly reasons:
1) The original goal_page didn't consider some pages used by kernel space, like
slab pages and pages used by device drivers.
2) The balloon driver may not give back memory to guest OS fast enough when the
workload suddenly aquries a lot of physical memory.
In both cases, the guest OS will suffer from memory pressure and OOM may
be triggered.
The fix is make xen-selfballoon driver not that aggressive by adding extra 10%
of total ram pages to goal_page.
It's more valuable to keep the guest system reliable and response faster than
balloon out these 10% pages to XEN.

The grant mapping API does m2p_override unnecessarily: only gntdev needs it,
for blkback and future netback patches it just cause a lock contention, as
those pages never go to userspace. Therefore this series does the following:
- the original functions were renamed to __gnttab_[un]map_refs, with a new
parameter m2p_override
- based on m2p_override either they follow the original behaviour, or just set
the private flag and call set_phys_to_machine
- gnttab_[un]map_refs are now a wrapper to call __gnttab_[un]map_refs with
m2p_override false
- a new function gnttab_[un]map_refs_userspace provides the old behaviour
It also removes a stray space from page.h and change ret to 0 if
XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap, as that is the only possible return value
there.
v2:
- move the storing of the old mfn in page->index to gnttab_map_refs
- move the function header update to a separate patch
v3:
- a new approach to retain old behaviour where it needed
- squash the patches into one
v4:
- move out the common bits from m2p* functions, and pass pfn/mfn as parameter
- clear page->private before doing anything with the page, so m2p_find_override
won't race with this
v5:
- change return value handling in __gnttab_[un]map_refs
- remove a stray space in page.h
- add detail why ret = 0 now at some places
v6:
- don't pass pfn to m2p* functions, just get it locally

The use of phys_to_machine and machine_to_phys in the phys<=>bus conversions
causes us to lose the top bits of the DMA address if the size of a DMA address is not the same as the size of the phyiscal address.
This can happen in practice on ARM where foreign pages can be above 4GB even
though the local kernel does not have LPAE page tables enabled (which is
totally reasonable if the guest does not itself have >4GB of RAM). In this
case the kernel still maps the foreign pages at a phys addr below 4G (as it
must) but the resulting DMA address (returned by the grant map operation) is
much higher.
This is analogous to a hardware device which has its view of RAM mapped up
high for some reason.
This patch makes I/O to foreign pages (specifically blkif) work on 32-bit ARM
systems with more than 4GB of RAM.

On the other hand, in the failed case, the write seems to happen before
the copy of the original page is done, so both the parent and the child
end up with the same value (because the parent copies the page after
the write of the child tid has already happened)."

the CR0_WP was removed so COW features of the Linux kernel were not

While doing that also update the rest of the CR0 flags to be inline
with what a baremetal Linux kernel would set them to.
In 'secondary_startup_64' (baremetal Linux) sets:
X86_CR0_PE | X86_CR0_MP | X86_CR0_ET | X86_CR0_NE | X86_CR0_WP |
X86_CR0_AM | X86_CR0_PG

For PVH it specifically sets:

512 grants), then we are hitting the max per guest of 32.

PVH allows PV linux guest to utilize hardware extended capabilities,
such as running MMU updates in a HVM container.
The Xen side defines PVH as (from docs/misc/pvh-readme.txt,
with modifications):
"* the guest uses auto translate:
- p2m is managed by Xen
- pagetables are owned by the guest
- mmu_update hypercall not available
* it uses event callback and not vlapic emulation,
* IDT is native, so set_trap_table hcall is also N/A for a PVH guest.
For a full list of hcalls supported for PVH, see pvh_hypercall64_table
in arch/x86/hvm/hvm.c in xen. From the ABI prespective, it's mostly a
PV guest with auto translate, although it does use hvm_op for setting
callback vector."
Use .ascii and .asciz to define xen feature string. Note, the PVH
string must be in a single line (not multiple lines with \) to keep the
assembler from putting null char after each string before \.
This patch allows it to be configured and enabled.
We also use introduce the 'XEN_ELFNOTE_SUPPORTED_FEATURES' ELF note to
tell the hypervisor that 'hvm_callback_vector' is what the kernel
needs. We can not put it in 'XEN_ELFNOTE_FEATURES' as older hypervisor
parse fields they don't understand as errors and refuse to load
the kernel. This work-around fixes the problem.

In PVH the shared grant frame is the PFN and not MFN,
hence its mapped via the same code path as HVM.
The allocation of the grant frame is done differently - we
do not use the early platform-pci driver and have an
ioremap area - instead we use balloon memory and stitch
all of the non-contingous pages in a virtualized area.
That means when we call the hypervisor to replace the GMFN
with a XENMAPSPACE_grant_table type, we need to lookup the
old PFN for every iteration instead of assuming a flat
contingous PFN allocation.
Lastly, we only use v1 for grants. This is because PVHVM
is not able to use v2 due to no XENMEM_add_to_physmap
calls on the error status page (see commit
69e8f430e2
xen/granttable: Disable grant v2 for HVM domains.)
Until that is implemented this workaround has to
be in place.
Also per suggestions by Stefano utilize the PVHVM paths
as they share common functionality.
v2 of this patch moves most of the PVH code out in the

The 'xen_hvm_resume_frames' used to be an 'unsigned long'
and contain the virtual address of the grants. That was OK
for most architectures (PVHVM, ARM) were the grants are contiguous
in memory. That however is not the case for PVH - in which case
we will have to do a lookup for each virtual address for the PFN.
Instead of doing that, lets make it a structure which will contain
the array of PFNs, the virtual address and the count of said PFNs.
Also provide a generic functions: gnttab_setup_auto_xlat_frames and
gnttab_free_auto_xlat_frames to populate said structure with
appropriate values for PVHVM and ARM.
To round it off, change the name from 'xen_hvm_resume_frames' to
a more descriptive one - 'xen_auto_xlat_grant_frames'.
For PVH, in patch "xen/pvh: Piggyback on PVHVM for grant driver"
we will populate the 'xen_auto_xlat_grant_frames' by ourselves.
v2 moves the xen_remap in the gnttab_setup_auto_xlat_frames

with above mentioned "commit you'll get set_phys_to_machine calls
from gnttab_map_refs and gnttab_unmap_refs but PVH guests won't do
anything with them " (Stefano Stabellini) which is OK - we want
them to be NOPs.
This is because we assume that an "IOMMU is always present on the

Otherwise we would need a P2M (and an M2P) for PVH priviligied to
track these foreign pages .. (see arch/arm/xen/p2m.c)."
(Stefano Stabellini).
We still have to inhibit the building of the P2M tree.
That had been done in the past by not calling
xen_build_dynamic_phys_to_machine (which setups the P2M tree
and gives us virtual address to access them). But we are missing
a check for xen_build_mfn_list_list - which was continuing to setup
the P2M tree and would blow up at trying to get the virtual
address of p2m_missing (which would have been setup by
xen_build_dynamic_phys_to_machine).
Hence a check is needed to not call xen_build_mfn_list_list when
running in auto-xlat mode.
Instead of replicating the check for auto-xlat in enlighten.c
do it in the p2m.c code. The reason is that the xen_build_mfn_list_list
is called also in xen_arch_post_suspend without any checks for
auto-xlat. So for PVH or PV with auto-xlat - we would needlessly
allocate space for an P2M tree.

We don't use the filtering that 'xen_cpuid' is doing
because the hypervisor treats 'XEN_EMULATE_PREFIX' as
an invalid instruction. This means that all of the filtering
will have to be done in the hypervisor/toolstack.
Without the filtering we expose to the guest the:
- cpu topology (sockets, cores, etc);
- the APERF (which the generic scheduler likes to
use), see 5e62625420
"xen/setup: filter APERFMPERF cpuid feature out"
- and the inability to figure out whether MWAIT_LEAF
should be exposed or not. See
df88b2d96e
"xen/enlighten: Disable MWAIT_LEAF so that acpi-pad won't be loaded."
- x2apic, see 4ea9b9aca9
"xen: mask x2APIC feature in PV"
We also check for vector callback early on, as it is a required
feature. PVH also runs at default kernel IOPL.
Finally, pure PV settings are moved to a separate function that are
only called for pure PV, ie, pv with pvmmu. They are also #ifdef
with CONFIG_XEN_PVMMU.

Which is a PV guest with auto page translation enabled
and with vector callback. It is a cross between PVHVM and PV.
The Xen side defines PVH as (from docs/misc/pvh-readme.txt,
with modifications):
"* the guest uses auto translate:
- p2m is managed by Xen
- pagetables are owned by the guest
- mmu_update hypercall not available
* it uses event callback and not vlapic emulation,
* IDT is native, so set_trap_table hcall is also N/A for a PVH guest.
For a full list of hcalls supported for PVH, see pvh_hypercall64_table
in arch/x86/hvm/hvm.c in xen. From the ABI prespective, it's mostly a
PV guest with auto translate, although it does use hvm_op for setting
callback vector."
Also we use the PV cpuid, albeit we can use the HVM (native) cpuid.
However, we do have a fair bit of filtering in the xen_cpuid and
we can piggyback on that until the hypervisor/toolstack filters
the appropiate cpuids. Once that is done we can swap over to
use the native one.
We setup a Kconfig entry that is disabled by default and
cannot be enabled.
Note that on ARM the concept of PVH is non-existent. As Ian
put it: "an ARM guest is neither PV nor HVM nor PVHVM.
It's a bit like PVH but is different also (it's further towards
the H end of the spectrum than even PVH).". As such these
options (PVHVM, PVH) are never enabled nor seen on ARM
compilations.

Most of the functions in page.h are prefaced with
if (xen_feature(XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap))
return mfn;
Except the mfn_to_local_pfn. At a first sight, the function
should work without this patch - as the 'mfn_to_mfn' has
a similar check. But there are no such check in the
'get_phys_to_machine' function - so we would crash in there.
This fixes it by following the convention of having the
check for auto-xlat in these static functions.

Implement all the event channel port ops for the FIFO-based ABI.
If the hypervisor supports the FIFO-based ABI, enable it by
initializing the control block for the boot VCPU and subsequent VCPUs
as they are brought up and on resume. The event array is expanded as
required when event ports are setup.
The 'xen.fifo_events=0' command line option may be used to disable use
of the FIFO-based ABI.

Set the VIRQ_TIMER priority to the highest so this behaviour is retained

Add the hypercall sub-ops and the structures for the shared data used
in the FIFO-based event channel ABI.
The design document for this new ABI is available here:
http://xenbits.xen.org/people/dvrabel/event-channels-H.pdf
In summary, events are reported using a per-domain shared event array
of event words. Each event word has PENDING, LINKED and MASKED bits
and a LINK field for pointing to the next event in the event queue.
There are 16 event queues (with different priorities) per-VCPU.
Key advantages of this new ABI include:
- Support for over 100,000 events (2^17).
- 16 different event priorities.
- Improved fairness in event latency through the use of FIFOs.
The ABI is available in Xen 4.4 and later.

Refactor static array evtchn_to_irq array to be dynamically allocated by
implementing get and set functions for accesses to the array.
Two new port ops are added: max_channels (maximum supported number of
event channels) and nr_channels (number of currently usable event
channels). For the 2-level ABI, these numbers are both the same as
the shared data structure is a fixed size. For the FIFO ABI, these
will be different as the event array is expanded dynamically.
This allows more than 65000 event channels so an unsigned short is no
longer sufficient for an event channel port number and unsigned int is
used instead.

The FIFO-based event ABI requires additional setup of newly bound
events (it may need to expand the event array) and this setup may
fail.
xen_irq_info_common_init() is a useful place to put this setup so
allow this call to fail. This call and the other similar calls are
renamed to be *_setup() to reflect that they may now fail.
This failure can only occur with new event channels not on rebind.
