2015-08-20xen/events: Support event channel rebind on ARMJulien Grall
Currently, the event channel rebind code is gated with the presence of the vector callback. The virtual interrupt controller on ARM has the concept of per-CPU interrupt (PPI) which allow us to support per-VCPU event channel. Therefore there is no need of vector callback for ARM. Xen is already using a free PPI to notify the guest VCPU of an event. Furthermore, the xen code initialization in Linux (see arch/arm/xen/enlighten.c) is requesting correctly a per-CPU IRQ. Introduce new helper xen_support_evtchn_rebind to allow architecture decide whether rebind an event is support or not. It will always return true on ARM and keep the same behavior on x86. This is also allow us to drop the usage of xen_have_vector_callback entirely in the ARM code.

2013-08-09xen: Support 64-bit PV guest receiving NMIsKonrad Rzeszutek Wilk
This is based on a patch that Zhenzhong Duan had sent - which was missing some of the remaining pieces. The kernel has the logic to handle Xen-type-exceptions using the paravirt interface in the assembler code (see PARAVIRT_ADJUST_EXCEPTION_FRAME - pv_irq_ops.adjust_exception_frame and and INTERRUPT_RETURN - pv_cpu_ops.iret). That means the nmi handler (and other exception handlers) use the hypervisor iret. The other changes that would be neccessary for this would be to translate the NMI_VECTOR to one of the entries on the ipi_vector and make xen_send_IPI_mask_allbutself use different events. Fortunately for us commit 1db01b4903639fcfaec213701a494fe3fb2c490b (xen: Clean up apic ipi interface) implemented this and we piggyback on the cleanup such that the apic IPI interface will pass the right vector value for NMI. With this patch we can trigger NMIs within a PV guest (only tested x86_64). For this to work with normal PV guests (not initial domain) we need the domain to be able to use the APIC ops - they are already implemented to use the Xen event channels. For that to be turned on in a PV domU we need to remove the masking of X86_FEATURE_APIC. Incidentally that means kgdb will also now work within a PV guest without using the 'nokgdbroundup' workaround. Note that the 32-bit version is different and this patch does not enable that.

2013-02-20xen: event channel arrays are xen_ulong_t and not unsigned longIan Campbell
On ARM we want these to be the same size on 32- and 64-bit. This is an ABI change on ARM. X86 does not change.

2009-02-09xen: use our own eventchannel->irq pathJeremy Fitzhardinge
Rather than overloading vectors for event channels, take full responsibility for mapping an event channel to irq directly. With this patch Xen has its own irq allocator. When the kernel gets an event channel upcall, it maps the event channel number to an irq and injects it into the normal interrupt path.

2008-10-23x86: drop double underscores from header guardsH. Peter Anvin
Drop double underscores from header guards in arch/x86/include. They are used inconsistently, and are not necessary. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
