 "This contains the following fixes/cleanups:

   - the removal of a BUG_ON() which wasn't necessary and which could
     trigger now due to a recent change

   - a correction of a long standing bug happening very rarely in Xen
     dom0 when a hypercall buffer from user land was not accessible by
     the hypervisor for very short periods of time due to e.g. page
     migration or compaction

   - usage of EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() instead of EXPORT_SYMBOL() in a
     Xen-related driver (no breakage possible as using those symbols
     without others already exported via EXPORT-SYMBOL_GPL() wouldn't
     make any sense)

   - a simplification for Xen PVH or Xen ARM guests

   - some additional error handling for callers of xenbus_printf()"

xen: share start flags between PV and PVH

2018-06-19T11:51:00+00:00

Use a global variable to store the start flags for both PV and PVH.
This allows the xen_initial_domain macro to work properly on PVH.

Note that ARM is also switched to use the new variable.

xen/privcmd: add IOCTL_PRIVCMD_MMAP_RESOURCE

2018-05-14T13:25:37+00:00

My recent Xen patch series introduces a new HYPERVISOR_memory_op to
support direct priv-mapping of certain guest resources (such as ioreq
pages, used by emulators) by a tools domain, rather than having to access
such resources via the guest P2M.

This patch adds the necessary infrastructure to the privcmd driver and
Xen MMU code to support direct resource mapping.

NOTE: The adjustment in the MMU code is partially cosmetic. Xen will now
      allow a PV tools domain to map guest pages either by GFN or MFN, thus
      the term 'mfn' has been swapped for 'pfn' in the lower layers of the
      remap code.

xen/sndif: Sync up with the canonical definition in Xen

2018-04-17T12:26:33+00:00

This is the sync up with the canonical definition of the sound
protocol in Xen:

1. Protocol version was referenced in the protocol description,
   but missed its definition. Fixed by adding a constant
   for current protocol version.

2. Some of the request descriptions have "reserved" fields
   missed: fixed by adding corresponding entries.

3. Extend the size of the requests and responses to 64 octets.
   Bump protocol version to 2.

4. Add explicit back and front synchronization
   In order to provide explicit synchronization between backend and
   frontend the following changes are introduced in the protocol:
    - add new ring buffer for sending asynchronous events from
      backend to frontend to report number of bytes played by the
      frontend (XENSND_EVT_CUR_POS)
    - introduce trigger events for playback control: start/stop/pause/resume
    - add "req-" prefix to event-channel and ring-ref to unify naming
      of the Xen event channels for requests and events

5. Add explicit back and front parameter negotiation
   In order to provide explicit stream parameter negotiation between
   backend and frontend the following changes are introduced in the protocol:
   add XENSND_OP_HW_PARAM_QUERY request to read/update
   configuration space for the parameters given: request passes
   desired parameter's intervals/masks and the response to this request
   returns allowed min/max intervals/masks to be used.

xen/pvh: Indicate XENFEAT_linux_rsdp_unrestricted to Xen

2018-04-10T13:22:22+00:00

Pre-4.17 kernels ignored start_info's rsdp_paddr pointer and instead
relied on finding RSDP in standard location in BIOS RO memory. This
has worked since that's where Xen used to place it.

However, with recent Xen change (commit 4a5733771e6f ("libxl: put RSDP
for PVH guest near 4GB")) it prefers to keep RSDP at a "non-standard"
address. Even though as of commit b17d9d1df3c3 ("x86/xen: Add pvh
specific rsdp address retrieval function") Linux is able to find RSDP,
for back-compatibility reasons we need to indicate to Xen that we can
handle this, an we do so by setting XENFEAT_linux_rsdp_unrestricted
flag in ELF notes.

(Also take this opportunity and sync features.h header file with Xen)

xen/balloon: Mark unallocated host memory as UNUSABLE

2017-12-20T18:16:20+00:00

Commit f5775e0b6116 ("x86/xen: discard RAM regions above the maximum
reservation") left host memory not assigned to dom0 as available for
memory hotplug.

Unfortunately this also meant that those regions could be used by
others. Specifically, commit fa564ad96366 ("x86/PCI: Enable a 64bit BAR
on AMD Family 15h (Models 00-1f, 30-3f, 60-7f)") may try to map those
addresses as MMIO.

To prevent this mark unallocated host memory as E820_TYPE_UNUSABLE (thus
effectively reverting f5775e0b6116) and keep track of that region as
a hostmem resource that can be used for the hotplug.

x86/xen/time: setup vcpu 0 time info page

2017-11-08T21:33:14+00:00

In order to support pvclock vdso on xen we need to setup the time
info page for vcpu 0 and register the page with Xen using the
VCPUOP_register_vcpu_time_memory_area hypercall. This hypercall
will also forcefully update the pvti which will set some of the
necessary flags for vdso. Afterwards we check if it supports the
PVCLOCK_TSC_STABLE_BIT flag which is mandatory for having
vdso/vsyscall support. And if so, it will set the cpu 0 pvti that
will be later on used when mapping the vdso image.

The xen headers are also updated to include the new hypercall for
registering the secondary vcpu_time_info struct.
