xen/mmu: Provide comments describing the _ka and _va aliasing issue
Which is that the level2_kernel_pgt (__ka virtual addresses)
and level2_ident_pgt (__va virtual address) contain the same
PMD entries. So if you modify a PTE in __ka, it will be reflected
in __va (and vice-versa).
xen/x86: Use memblock_reserve for sensitive areas.
instead of a big memblock_reserve. This way we can be more
selective in freeing regions (and it also makes it easier
to understand where is what).

The P2M code is smart enough to return false (which means that it
cannot allocate anymore) and the error can perculate up the calling
stack without trouble - with the error logic doing the proper thing.
So check the __brk_limit values before allocating from extend_brk.
This allows us to boot on machines where we do not have enough
__brk space, and we would get this:
Interestingly enough, most of the time we are not going to hit this
b/c the _brk space is quite large (v3.5): ffffffff81a25000 B __brk_base ffffffff81e43000 B __brk_limit
= ~4MB.
vs earlier kernels (with this back-ported), the space is smaller: ffffffff81a25000 B __brk_base ffffffff81a7b000 B __brk_limit

xen PVonHVM: move shared_info to MMIO before kexec
Currently kexec in a PVonHVM guest fails with a triple fault because the
new kernel overwrites the shared info page. The exact failure depends on
the size of the kernel image. This patch moves the pfn from RAM into
MMIO space before the kexec boot.
The pfn containing the shared_info is located somewhere in RAM. This
will cause trouble if the current kernel is doing a kexec boot into a
new kernel. The new kernel (and its startup code) can not know where the
pfn is, so it can not reserve the page. The hypervisor will continue to
update the pfn, and as a result memory corruption occours in the new
kernel.
One way to work around this issue is to allocate a page in the
xen-platform pci device's BAR memory range. But pci init is done very
late and the shared_info page is already in use very early to read the
pvclock. So moving the pfn from RAM to MMIO is racy because some code
paths on other vcpus could access the pfn during the small window when
the old pfn is moved to the new pfn. There is even a small window were
the old pfn is not backed by a mfn, and during that time all reads
return -1.
Because it is not known upfront where the MMIO region is located it can
not be used right from the start in xen_hvm_init_shared_info.
To minimise trouble the move of the pfn is done shortly before kexec.
This does not eliminate the race because all vcpus are still online when
the syscore_ops will be called. But hopefully there is no work pending
at this point in time. Also the syscore_op is run last which reduces the
risk further.

xen/pv-on-hvm kexec: shutdown watches from old kernel
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

xen/mm: do direct hypercall in xen_set_pte() if batching is unavailable
In xen_set_pte() if batching is unavailable (because the caller is in
an interrupt context such as handling a page fault) it would fall back
to using native_set_pte() and trapping and emulating the PTE write.
On 32-bit guests this requires two traps for each PTE write (one for
each dword of the PTE). Instead, do one mmu_update hypercall
directly.
During construction of the initial page tables, continue to use
native_set_pte() because most of the PTEs being set are in writable
and unpinned pages (see phys_pmd_init() in arch/x86/mm/init_64.c) and
using a hypercall for this is very expensive.
This significantly improves page fault performance in 32-bit PV

xen: enter/exit lazy_mmu_mode around m2p_override calls
This patch is a significant performance improvement for the
m2p_override: about 6% using the gntdev device.
Each m2p_add/remove_override call issues a MULTI_grant_table_op and a
__flush_tlb_single if kmap_op != NULL. Batching all the calls together
is a great performance benefit because it means issuing one hypercall
total rather than two hypercall per page.
If paravirt_lazy_mode is set PARAVIRT_LAZY_MMU, all these calls are
going to be batched together, otherwise they are issued one at a time.
Adding arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode/arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode around the
m2p_add/remove_override calls forces paravirt_lazy_mode to
PARAVIRT_LAZY_MMU, therefore makes sure that they are always batched.
However it is not safe to call arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode if we are in
interrupt context or if we are already in PARAVIRT_LAZY_MMU mode, so
check for both conditions before doing so.
Changes in v4:
- rebased on 3.4-rc4: all the m2p_override users call gnttab_unmap_refs
and gnttab_map_refs;
- check whether we are in interrupt context and the lazy_mode we are in
before calling arch_enter/leave_lazy_mmu_mode.

- do not call arch_enter/leave_lazy_mmu_mode in xen_blkbk_unmap, that

The other solution (that did not work) was to transplant the MFN in
the P2M tree - the ones that were going to be freed were put in
the E820_RAM regions past the nr_pages. But the modifications to the
M2P array (the other side of creating PTEs) were not carried away.
As the hypervisor is the only one capable of modifying that and the
only two hypercalls that would do this are: the update_va_mapping
(which won't work, as during initial bootup only PFNs up to nr_pages
are mapped in the guest) or via the populate hypercall.
The end result is that the kernel can now boot with the
nr_pages without having to subtract the 283999 pages.

future memory expansion the guest must derive max_pfn from the e820 provided by
the toolstack and not the current maximum reservation (which can reflect only

xen-blkfront: set pages are FOREIGN_FRAME when sharing them
Set pages as FOREIGN_FRAME whenever blkfront shares them with another
domain. Then when blkfront un-share them, also removes the
FOREIGN_FRAME_BIT from the p2m.
We do it so that when the source and the destination domain are the same
(blkfront connected to a disk backend in the same domain) we can more easily
recognize which ones are the source pfns and which ones are the
destination pfns (both are going to be pointing to the same mfns).
Without this patch enstablishing a connection between blkfront and QEMU
qdisk in the same domain causes QEMU to hang and never return.
The scenario where this used is when a disk image in QCOW2 is used
for extracting the kernel and initrd image. The QCOW2 image file cannot
be loopback-ed and to run 'pygrub', the weird scaffolding of:
- setup QEMU and qdisk with the qcow2 image [disk backend]
- setup xen-blkfront mounting said disk backend in the domain.
- extract kernel and initrd
- tear it down.
The MFNs shared shared by the frontend are going to back two
different sets of PFNs: the original PFNs allocated by the frontend and
the new ones allocated by gntdev for the backend.
The problem is that when Linux calls mfn_to_pfn, passing as argument
one of the MFN shared by the frontend, we want to get the PFN returned by
m2p_find_override_pfn (that is the PFN setup by gntdev) but actually we
get the original PFN allocated by the frontend because considering that
the frontend and the backend are in the same domain:
One possible solution would be to always call m2p_find_override_pfn to
check out whether we have an entry for a given MFN. However it is not
very efficient or scalable.
The other option (that this patch is implementing) is to mark the pages
shared by the frontend as "foreign", so that mfn != mfn2.
It makes sense because from the frontend point of view they are donated
to the backend and while so they are not supposed to be used by the
frontend. In a way, they don't belong to the frontend anymore, at least
temporarily.

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"
