d75cd22fdd x86/paravirt: split sysret and sysexit
Don't conflate sysret and sysexit; they're different instructions with
different semantics, and may be in use at the same time (at least
within the same kernel, depending on whether its an Intel or AMD
system).

sysexit - just return to userspace, does no register restoration of
    any kind; must explicitly atomically enable interrupts.

sysret - reloads flags from r11, so no need to explicitly enable
    interrupts on 64-bit, responsible for restoring usermode %gs

400d34944c xen: add mechanism to extend existing multicalls
Some Xen hypercalls accept an array of operations to work on.  In
general this is because its more efficient for the hypercall to the
work all at once rather than as separate hypercalls (even batched as a
multicall).

This patch adds a mechanism (xen_mc_extend_args()) to allocate more
argument space to the last-issued multicall, in order to extend its
argument list.

The user of this mechanism is xen/mmu.c, which uses it to extend the
args array of mmu_update.  This is particularly valuable when doing
the update for a large mprotect, which goes via
ptep_modify_prot_commit(), but it also manages to batch updates to
pgd/pmds as well.

e57778a1e3 xen: implement ptep_modify_prot_start/commit
Xen has a pte update function which will update a pte while preserving
its accessed and dirty bits.  This means that ptep_modify_prot_start() can be
implemented as a simple read of the pte value.  The hardware may
update the pte in the meantime, but ptep_modify_prot_commit() updates it while
preserving any changes that may have happened in the meantime.

The updates in ptep_modify_prot_commit() are batched if we're currently in lazy
mmu mode.

The mmu_update hypercall can take a batch of updates to perform, but
this code doesn't make particular use of that feature, in favour of
using generic multicall batching to get them all into the hypervisor.

The net effect of this is that each mprotect pte update turns from two
expensive trap-and-emulate faults into they hypervisor into a single
hypercall whose cost is amortized in a batched multicall.

f595ec964d common implementation of iterative div/mod
We have a few instances of the open-coded iterative div/mod loop, used
when we don't expcet the dividend to be much bigger than the divisor.
Unfortunately modern gcc's have the tendency to strength "reduce" this
into a full mod operation, which isn't necessarily any faster, and
even if it were, doesn't exist if gcc implements it in libgcc.

The workaround is to put a dummy asm statement in the loop to prevent
gcc from performing the transformation.

This patch creates a single implementation of this loop, and uses it
to replace the open-coded versions I know about.

9c7a794209 xen: restore vcpu_info mapping
If we're using vcpu_info mapping, then make sure its restored on all
processors before relasing them from stop_machine.

The only complication is that if this fails, we can't continue because
we've already made assumptions that the mapping is available (baked in
calls to the _direct versions of the functions, for example).

Fortunately this can only happen with a 32-bit hypervisor, which may
possibly run out of mapping space.  On a 64-bit hypervisor, this is a
non-issue.

e2426cf85f xen: avoid hypercalls when updating unpinned pud/pmd
When operating on an unpinned pagetable (ie, one under construction or
destruction), it isn't necessary to use a hypercall to update a
pud/pmd entry.  Jan Beulich observed that a similar optimisation
avoided many thousands of hypercalls while doing a kernel build.

One tricky part is that early in the kernel boot there's no page
structure, so we can't check to see if the page is pinned.  In that
case, we just always use the hypercall.

with this config:

   http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/config-Wed_May_28_01_33_33_CEST_2008.bad

The thing is, the crash makes little sense at first sight. We crash on a
benign-looking printk. The code around it got changed in -tip but
checking those topic branches individually did not reproduce the bug.

Bisection led to this commit:

|   xen: add p2m mfn_list_list

Which is somewhat surprising, as on native hardware Xen client side
should have little to no side-effects.

After some head scratching, it turns out the following happened:
randconfig enabled the following Xen options:

  CONFIG_XEN=y
  CONFIG_XEN_MAX_DOMAIN_MEMORY=8
  # CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND is not set
  # CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND is not set
  CONFIG_HVC_XEN=y
  # CONFIG_XEN_BALLOON is not set

which activated this piece of code in arch/x86/xen/mmu.c:

> @@ -69,6 +69,13 @@
>  	__attribute__((section(".data.page_aligned"))) =
>  		{ [ 0 ... TOP_ENTRIES - 1] = &p2m_missing[0] };
>
> +/* Arrays of p2m arrays expressed in mfns used for save/restore */
> +static unsigned long p2m_top_mfn[TOP_ENTRIES]

> +
> +static unsigned long p2m_top_mfn_list[TOP_ENTRIES / P2M_ENTRIES_PER_PAGE]
> +	__attribute__((section(".bss.page_aligned")));

The problem is, you must only put variables into .bss.page_aligned that
have a _size_ that is _exactly_ page aligned. In this case the size of
p2m_top_mfn_list is not page aligned:

 80b8d000 b p2m_top_mfn
 80b8f000 b p2m_top_mfn_list
 80b8f008 b softirq_stack
 80b97008 b hardirq_stack
 80b9f008 b bm_pte

So all subsequent variables get unaligned which, depending on luck,
breaks the kernel in various funny ways. In this case what killed the
kernel first was the misaligned bootmap pte page, resulting in that
creative crash above.

Anyway, this was a fun bug to track down :-)

I think the moral is that .bss.page_aligned is a dangerous construct in
its current form, and the symptoms of breakage are very non-trivial, so
i think we need build-time checks to make sure all symbols in
.bss.page_aligned are truly page aligned.

The Xen fix below gets the kernel booting again.

0e91398f2a xen: implement save/restore
This patch implements Xen save/restore and migration.

Saving is triggered via xenbus, which is polled in
drivers/xen/manage.c.  When a suspend request comes in, the kernel
prepares itself for saving by:

1 - Freeze all processes.  This is primarily to prevent any
    partially-completed pagetable updates from confusing the suspend
    process.  If CONFIG_PREEMPT isn't defined, then this isn't necessary.

2 - Suspend xenbus and other devices

3 - Stop_machine, to make sure all the other vcpus are quiescent.  The
    Xen tools require the domain to run its save off vcpu0.

4 - Within the stop_machine state, it pins any unpinned pgds (under
    construction or destruction), performs canonicalizes various other
    pieces of state (mostly converting mfns to pfns), and finally

5 - Suspend the domain

Restore reverses the steps used to save the domain, ending when all
the frozen processes are thawed.

d5edbc1f75 xen: add p2m mfn_list_list
When saving a domain, the Xen tools need to remap all our mfns to
portable pfns.  In order to remap our p2m table, it needs to know
where all its pages are, so maintain the references to the p2m table
for it to use.

cf0923ea29 xen: efficiently support a holey p2m table
When using sparsemem and memory hotplug, the kernel's pseudo-physical
address space can be discontigious.  Previously this was dealt with by
having the upper parts of the radix tree stubbed off.  Unfortunately,
this is incompatible with save/restore, which requires a complete p2m
table.

The solution is to have a special distinguished all-invalid p2m leaf
page, which we can point all the hole areas at.  This allows the tools
to see a complete p2m table, but it only costs a page for all memory
holes.

It also simplifies the code since it removes a few special cases.

8006ec3e91 xen: add configurable max domain size
Add a config option to set the max size of a Xen domain.  This is used
to scale the size of the physical-to-machine array; it ends up using
around 1 page/GByte, so there's no reason to be very restrictive.

For a 32-bit guest, the default value of 8GB is probably sufficient;
there's not much point in giving a 32-bit machine much more memory
than that.

We now support the use of memory hotplug, so the physical to machine
page mapping structure must be dynamic.  This is implemented as a
two-level radix tree structure, which allows us to efficiently
incrementally allocate memory for the p2m table as new pages are
added.

83abc70a4c xen: make earlyprintk=xen work again
For some perverse reason, if you call add_preferred_console() it prevents
setup_early_printk() from successfully enabling the boot console -
unless you make it a preferred console too...

Also, make xenboot console output distinct from normal console output,
since it gets repeated when the console handover happens, and the
duplicated output is confusing without disambiguation.

9e124fe16f xen: Enable console tty by default in domU if it's not a dummy
Without console= arguments on the kernel command line, the first
console to register becomes enabled and the preferred console (the one
behind /dev/console).  This is normally tty (assuming
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is enabled, which it commonly is).

This is okay as long tty is a useful console.  But unless we have the
PV framebuffer, and it is enabled for this domain, tty0 in domU is
merely a dummy.  In that case, we want the preferred console to be the
Xen console hvc0, and we want it without having to fiddle with the
kernel command line.  Commit b8c2d3dfbc
did that for us.

Since we now have the PV framebuffer, we want to enable and prefer tty
again, but only when PVFB is enabled.  But even then we still want to
enable the Xen console as well.

Problem: when tty registers, we can't yet know whether the PVFB is
enabled.  By the time we can know (xenstore is up), the console setup
game is over.

Solution: enable console tty by default, but keep hvc as the preferred
console.  Change the preferred console to tty when PVFB probes
successfully, unless we've been given console kernel parameters.
