xen / ACPI: notify xen when reduced hardware sleep is available

2013-07-31T12:22:35+00:00

Use the acpi_os_prepare_extended_sleep() callback to notify xen
to make use of the reduced hardware sleep functionality

The xen hypervisor change underlying this is commit 62d1a69
("ACPI: support v5 (reduced HW) sleep interface") on the master
branch of git://xenbits.xen.org/xen.git.

xen/acpi: ACPI cpu hotplug

2013-02-20T03:02:29+00:00

This patch implement real Xen ACPI cpu hotplug driver as module.
When loaded, it replaces Xen stub driver.

For booting existed cpus, the driver enumerates them.
For hotadded cpus, which added at runtime and notify OS via
device or container event, the driver is invoked to add them,
parsing cpu information, hypercalling to Xen hypervisor to add
them, and finally setting up new /sys interface for them.

xen/acpi: ACPI memory hotplug

2013-02-20T03:02:26+00:00

This patch implements real Xen acpi memory hotplug driver as module.
When loaded, it replaces Xen stub driver.

When an acpi memory device hotadd event occurs, it notifies OS and
invokes notification callback, adding related memory device and parsing
memory information, finally hypercall to xen hypervisor to add memory.

xen/acpi: ACPI PAD driver

2012-11-26T20:07:19+00:00

PAD is acpi Processor Aggregator Device which provides a control point
that enables the platform to perform specific processor configuration
and control that applies to all processors in the platform.

This patch is to implement Xen acpi pad logic. When running under Xen
virt platform, native pad driver would not work. Instead Xen pad driver,
a self-contained and thin logic level, would take over acpi pad logic.

When acpi pad notify OSPM, xen pad logic intercept and parse _PUR object
to get the expected idle cpu number, and then hypercall to hypervisor.
Xen hypervisor would then do the rest work, say, core parking, to idle
specific number of cpus on its own policy.

Pull preparatory patches for user API disintegration from David Howells:
 "The patches herein prepare for the extraction of the Userspace API
  bits from the various header files named in the Kbuild files.

  New subdirectories are created under either include/uapi/ or
  arch/x/include/uapi/ that correspond to the subdirectory containing
  that file under include/ or arch/x/include/.

  The new subdirs under the uapi/ directory are populated with Kbuild
  files that mostly do nothing at this time.  Further patches will
  disintegrate the headers in each original directory and fill in the
  Kbuild files as they do it.

  These patches also:

   (1) fix up #inclusions of "foo.h" rather than .

   (2) Remove some redundant #includes from the DRM code.

   (3) Make the kernel build infrastructure handle Kbuild files both in
       the old places and the new UAPI place that both specify headers
       to be exported.

   (4) Fix some kernel tools that #include kernel headers during their
       build.

  I have compile tested this with allyesconfig against x86_64,
  allmodconfig against i386 and a scattering of additional defconfigs of
  other arches.  Prepared for main script

xen: Introduce xen_pfn_t for pfn and mfn types

2012-08-23T14:18:17+00:00

All the original Xen headers have xen_pfn_t as mfn and pfn type, however
when they have been imported in Linux, xen_pfn_t has been replaced with
unsigned long. That might work for x86 and ia64 but it does not for arm.
Bring back xen_pfn_t and let each architecture define xen_pfn_t as they
see fit.

xen/pcpu: Xen physical cpus online/offline sys interface

2012-07-19T19:51:39+00:00

This patch provide Xen physical cpus online/offline sys interface.
User can use it for their own purpose, like power saving:
by offlining some cpus when light workload it save power greatly.

Its basic workflow is, user online/offline cpu via sys interface,
then hypercall xen to implement, after done xen inject virq back to dom0,
and then dom0 sync cpu status.
