The 'read_reply' works with 'process_msg' to read of a reply in XenBus.
'process_msg' is running from within the 'xenbus' thread. Whenever
a message shows up in XenBus it is put on a xs_state.reply_list list
and 'read_reply' picks it up.
The problem is if the backend domain or the xenstored process is killed.
In which case 'xenbus' is still awaiting - and 'read_reply' if called -
stuck forever waiting for the reply_list to have some contents.
This is normally not a problem - as the backend domain can come back
or the xenstored process can be restarted. However if the domain
is in process of being powered off/restarted/halted - there is no
point of waiting on it coming back - as we are effectively being
terminated and should not impede the progress.
This patch solves this problem by checking whether the guest is the
right domain. If it is an initial domain and hurtling towards death -
there is no point of continuing the wait. All other type of guests
continue with their behavior (as Xenstore is expected to still be
running in another domain).

The user has the option of disabling the platform driver:

- if running in PV, then it is fine to execute (as that is their
native environment).
- if running in HVM, check if user wanted 'xen_emul_unplug=never',
in which case bail out and don't load any PV drivers.
- if running in HVM, and if PCI device 5853:0001 (xen_platform_pci)
does not exist, then bail out and not load PV drivers.
- (v2) if running in HVM, and if the user wanted 'xen_emul_unplug=ide-disks',
then bail out for all PV devices _except_ the block one.

The commit 254d1a3f02, titled
"xen/pv-on-hvm kexec: shutdown watches from old kernel" assumes that the
XenBus backend can deal with reading of values from:
"control/platform-feature-xs_reset_watches":
... a patch for xenstored is required so that it
accepts the XS_RESET_WATCHES request from a client (see changeset
23839:42a45baf037d in xen-unstable.hg). Without the patch for xenstored
the registration of watches will fail and some features of a PVonHVM
guest are not available. The guest is still able to boot, but repeated
kexec boots will fail."
Sadly this is not true when using a Xen 3.4 hypervisor and booting a PVHVM
guest. We end up hanging at:
err = xenbus_scanf(XBT_NIL, "control",
"platform-feature-xs_reset_watches", "%d", &supported);
This can easily be seen with guests hanging at xenbus_init:
NX (Execute Disable) protection: active
SMBIOS 2.4 present.
DMI: Xen HVM domU, BIOS 3.4.0 05/13/2011
Hypervisor detected: Xen HVM
Xen version 3.4.
Xen Platform PCI: I/O protocol version 1
... snip ..
calling xenbus_init+0x0/0x27e @ 1
Reverting the commit or using the attached patch fixes the issue. This fix
checks whether the hypervisor is older than 4.0 and if so does not try to
perform the read.

[v2: Added a comment in the source code]
Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>
Since Xen-4.2, hvm domains may have portions of their memory paged out. When a
foreign domain (such as dom0) attempts to map these frames, the map will
initially fail. The hypervisor returns a suitable errno, and kicks an
asynchronous page-in operation carried out by a helper. The foreign domain is
expected to retry the mapping operation until it eventually succeeds. The
foreign domain is not put to sleep because itself could be the one running the
pager assist (typical scenario for dom0).
This patch adds support for this mechanism for backend drivers using grant
mapping and copying operations. Specifically, this covers the blkback and
gntdev drivers (which map foreign grants), and the netback driver (which copies
foreign grants).
* Add a retry method for grants that fail with GNTST_eagain (i.e. because the
target foreign frame is paged out).
* Insert hooks with appropriate wrappers in the aforementioned drivers.
The retry loop is only invoked if the grant operation status is GNTST_eagain.
It guarantees to leave a new status code different from GNTST_eagain. Any other
status code results in identical code execution as before.
The retry loop performs 256 attempts with increasing time intervals through a
32 second period. It uses msleep to yield while waiting for the next retry.
V2 after feedback from David Vrabel:
* Explicit MAX_DELAY instead of wrap-around delay into zero
* Abstract GNTST_eagain check into core grant table code for netback module.
V3 after feedback from Ian Campbell:
* Add placeholder in array of grant table error descriptions for unrelated
error code we jump over.
* Eliminate single map and retry macro in favor of a generic batch flavor.
* Some renaming.
* Bury most implementation in grant_table.c, cleaner interface.
V4 rebased on top of sync of Xen grant table interface headers.

Add xs_reset_watches function to shutdown watches from old kernel after
kexec boot. The old kernel does not unregister all watches in the
shutdown path. They are still active, the double registration can not
be detected by the new kernel. When the watches fire, unexpected events
will arrive and the xenwatch thread will crash (jumps to NULL). An
orderly reboot of a hvm guest will destroy the entire guest with all its
resources (including the watches) before it is rebuilt from scratch, so
the missing unregister is not an issue in that case.
With this change the xenstored is instructed to wipe all active watches
for the guest. However, a patch for xenstored is required so that it
accepts the XS_RESET_WATCHES request from a client (see changeset
23839:42a45baf037d in xen-unstable.hg). Without the patch for xenstored
the registration of watches will fail and some features of a PVonHVM

Pull Xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"Features:
* Extend the APIC ops implementation and add IRQ_WORKER vector
support so that 'perf' can work properly.
* Fix self-ballooning code, and balloon logic when booting as initial
domain.
* Move array printing code to generic debugfs
* Support XenBus domains.
* Lazily free grants when a domain is dead/non-existent.
* In M2P code use batching calls
Bug-fixes:
* Fix NULL dereference in allocation failure path (hvc_xen)
* Fix unbinding of IRQ_WORKER vector during vCPU hot-unplug
* Fix HVM guest resume - we would leak an PIRQ value instead of
reusing the existing one."
Fix up add-add onflicts in arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c due to addition of
apic ipi interface next to the new apic_id functions.
* tag 'stable/for-linus-3.5-rc0-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen:

xen/p2m: Collapse early_alloc_p2m_middle redundant checks.
xen/p2m: Allow alloc_p2m_middle to call reserve_brk depending on argument
xen/p2m: Move code around to allow for better re-usage.
Add an ioctl to the /dev/xen/xenbus_backend device allowing the xenbus
backend to be started after the kernel has booted. This allows xenstore
to run in a different domain from the dom0.

A rather annoying and common case is when booting a PVonHVM guest
and exposing the PV KBD and PV VFB - as broken toolstacks don't
always initialize the backends correctly.
Normally The HVM guest is using the VGA driver and the emulated
keyboard for this (though upstream version of QEMU implements
PV KBD, but still uses a VGA driver). We provide a very basic
two-stage wait mechanism - where we wait for 30 seconds for all
devices, and then for 270 for all them except the two mentioned.
That allows us to wait for the essential devices, like network
or disk for the full 6 minutes.
To trigger this, put this in your guest config:
vfb = [ 'vnc=1, vnclisten=0.0.0.0 ,vncunused=1']
instead of this:
vnc=1
vnclisten="0.0.0.0"

Pull xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"which has three neat features:
- PV multiconsole support, so that there can be hvc1, hvc2, etc; This
can be used in HVM and in PV mode.
- P-state and C-state power management driver that uploads said power

There is one thing in the Kconfig that you won't like: "default y
if (X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ = y || X86_POWERNOW_K8 = y)" (note, that it
all depends on CONFIG_XEN which depends on CONFIG_PARAVIRT which by
default is off). I've a fix to convert that boolean expression
into "default m" which I am going to post after the cpufreq git
pull - as the two patches to make this work depend on a fix in Dave
Jones's tree.
- Function Level Reset (FLR) support in the Xen PCI backend.
Fixes:
- Kconfig dependencies for Xen PV keyboard and video
- Compile warnings and constify fixes
- Change over to use percpu_xxx instead of this_cpu_xxx"
Fix up trivial conflicts in drivers/tty/hvc/hvc_xen.c due to changes to
a removed commit.
* tag 'stable/for-linus-3.4-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen:
xen kconfig: relax INPUT_XEN_KBDDEV_FRONTEND deps
xen/acpi-processor: C and P-state driver that uploads said data to hypervisor.
xen: constify all instances of "struct attribute_group"
xen/xenbus: ignore console/0
hvc_xen: introduce HVC_XEN_FRONTEND
hvc_xen: implement multiconsole support

xen/enlighten: Expose MWAIT and MWAIT_LEAF if hypervisor OKs it.
xen/setup/pm/acpi: Remove the call to boot_option_idle_override.
xenbus: address compiler warnings
xen: use this_cpu_xxx replace percpu_xxx funcs
xen/pciback: Support pci_reset_function, aka FLR or D3 support.
pci: Introduce __pci_reset_function_locked to be used when holding device_lock.
xen: Utilize the restore_msi_irqs hook.
Unfortunately xend creates a bogus console/0 frotend/backend entry pair
on xenstore that console backends cannot properly cope with.
Any guest behavior that is not completely ignoring console/0 is going
to either cause problems with xenconsoled or qemu.
Returning 0 or -ENODEV from xencons_probe is not enough because it is
going to cause the frontend state to become 4 or 6 respectively.
The best possible thing we can do here is just ignore the entry from
xenbus_probe_frontend.

Haogang Chen found out that:
There is a potential integer overflow in process_msg() that could result
in cross-domain attack.
body = kmalloc(msg->hdr.len + 1, GFP_NOIO | __GFP_HIGH);
When a malicious guest passes 0xffffffff in msg->hdr.len, the subsequent
call to xb_read() would write to a zero-length buffer.
The other end of this connection is always the xenstore backend daemon
so there is no guest (malicious or otherwise) which can do this. The
xenstore daemon is a trusted component in the system.
However this seem like a reasonable robustness improvement so we should
have it.
And Ian when read the API docs found that:
The payload length (len field of the header) is limited to 4096
(XENSTORE_PAYLOAD_MAX) in both directions. If a client exceeds the
limit, its xenstored connection will be immediately killed by
xenstored, which is usually catastrophic from the client's point of
view. Clients (particularly domains, which cannot just reconnect)
should avoid this.
so this patch checks against that instead.
This also avoids a potential integer overflow pointed out by Haogang Chen.

The 'name', 'owner', and 'mod_name' members are redundant with the
identically named fields in the 'driver' sub-structure. Rather than
switching each instance to specify these fields explicitly, introduce
a macro to simplify this.
Eliminate further redundancy by allowing the drvname argument to
DEFINE_XENBUS_DRIVER() to be blank (in which case the first entry from
the ID table will be used for .driver.name).
Also eliminate the questionable xenbus_register_{back,front}end()
wrappers - their sole remaining purpose was the checking of the
'owner' field, proper setting of which shouldn't be an issue anymore
when the macro gets used.

For xenbus_{map,unmap}_ring to work on HVM, the grant table operations
must be set up using the gnttab_set_{map,unmap}_op functions instead of
directly populating the fields of gnttab_map_grant_ref. These functions
simply populate the structure on paravirtualized Xen; however, on HVM
they must call __pa() on vaddr when populating op->host_addr because the
hypervisor cannot directly interpret guest-virtual addresses.
