Currently ballooned out pages are mapped to 0 and have INVALID_P2M_ENTRY
in the p2m. These ballooned out pages are used to map foreign grants
by gntdev and blkback (see alloc_xenballooned_pages).
Allocate a page per cpu and map all the ballooned out pages to the
corresponding mfn. Set the p2m accordingly. This way reading from a
ballooned out page won't cause a kernel crash (see
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2012-12/msg01154.html).

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 1db01b4903
(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.

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This time the total number of ACPI commits is slightly greater than
the number of cpufreq commits, but Viresh Kumar (who works on cpufreq)
remains the most active patch submitter.
To me, the most significant change is the addition of offline/online
device operations to the driver core (with the Greg's blessing) and
the related modifications of the ACPI core hotplug code. Next are the
freezer updates from Colin Cross that should make the freezing of
tasks a bit less heavy weight.
We also have a couple of regression fixes, a number of fixes for
issues that have not been identified as regressions, two new drivers
and a bunch of cleanups all over.
Highlights:
- Hotplug changes to support graceful hot-removal failures.
It sometimes is necessary to fail device hot-removal operations
gracefully if they cannot be carried out completely. For example,
if memory from a memory module being hot-removed has been allocated
for the kernel's own use and cannot be moved elsewhere, it's
desirable to fail the hot-removal operation in a graceful way
rather than to crash the kernel, but currenty a success or a kernel
crash are the only possible outcomes of an attempted memory
hot-removal. Needless to say, that is not a very attractive
alternative and it had to be addressed.
However, in order to make it work for memory, I first had to make
it work for CPUs and for this purpose I needed to modify the ACPI
processor driver. It's been split into two parts, a resident one
handling the low-level initialization/cleanup and a modular one
playing the actual driver's role (but it binds to the CPU system
device objects rather than to the ACPI device objects representing
processors). That's been sort of like a live brain surgery on a
patient who's riding a bike.
So this is a little scary, but since we found and fixed a couple of
regressions it caused to happen during the early linux-next testing
(a month ago), nobody has complained.
As a bonus we remove some duplicated ACPI hotplug code, because the
ACPI-based CPU hotplug is now going to use the common ACPI hotplug
code.
- Lighter weight freezing of tasks.
These changes from Colin Cross and Mandeep Singh Baines are
targeted at making the freezing of tasks a bit less heavy weight
operation. They reduce the number of tasks woken up every time
during the freezing, by using the observation that the freezer
simply doesn't need to wake up some of them and wait for them all
to call refrigerator(). The time needed for the freezer to decide
to report a failure is reduced too.
Also reintroduced is the check causing a lockdep warining to
trigger when try_to_freeze() is called with locks held (which is
generally unsafe and shouldn't happen).
- cpufreq updates
First off, a commit from Srivatsa S Bhat fixes a resume regression
introduced during the 3.10 cycle causing some cpufreq sysfs
attributes to return wrong values to user space after resume. The
fix is kind of fresh, but also it's pretty obvious once Srivatsa
has identified the root cause.
Second, we have a new freqdomain_cpus sysfs attribute for the
acpi-cpufreq driver to provide information previously available via
related_cpus. From Lan Tianyu.
Finally, we fix a number of issues, mostly related to the
CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and cpufreq Kconfig options and clean
up some code. The majority of changes from Viresh Kumar with bits
from Jacob Shin, Heiko Stübner, Xiaoguang Chen, Ezequiel Garcia,
Arnd Bergmann, and Tang Yuantian.
- ACPICA update
A usual bunch of updates from the ACPICA upstream.
During the 3.4 cycle we introduced support for ACPI 5 extended
sleep registers, but they are only supposed to be used if the
HW-reduced mode bit is set in the FADT flags and the code attempted
to use them without checking that bit. That caused suspend/resume
regressions to happen on some systems. Fix from Lv Zheng causes
those registers to be used only if the HW-reduced mode bit is set.
Apart from this some other ACPICA bugs are fixed and code cleanups
are made by Bob Moore, Tomasz Nowicki, Lv Zheng, Chao Guan, and
Zhang Rui.
- cpuidle updates
New driver for Xilinx Zynq processors is added by Michal Simek.
Multidriver support simplification, addition of some missing
kerneldoc comments and Kconfig-related fixes come from Daniel
Lezcano.
- ACPI power management updates
Changes to make suspend/resume work correctly in Xen guests from
Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk, sparse warning fix from Fengguang Wu and
cleanups and fixes of the ACPI device power state selection
routine.
- ACPI documentation updates
Some previously missing pieces of ACPI documentation are added by
Lv Zheng and Aaron Lu (hopefully, that will help people to
uderstand how the ACPI subsystem works) and one outdated doc is
updated by Hanjun Guo.
- Assorted ACPI updates
We finally nailed down the IA-64 issue that was the reason for
reverting commit 9f29ab11dd ("ACPI / scan: do not match drivers
against objects having scan handlers"), so we can fix it and move
the ACPI scan handler check added to the ACPI video driver back to
the core.
A mechanism for adding CMOS RTC address space handlers is
introduced by Lan Tianyu to allow some EC-related breakage to be
fixed on some systems.
A spec-compliant implementation of acpi_os_get_timer() is added by
Mika Westerberg.
The evaluation of _STA is added to do_acpi_find_child() to avoid
situations in which a pointer to a disabled device object is
returned instead of an enabled one with the same _ADR value. From
Jeff Wu.
Intel BayTrail PCH (Platform Controller Hub) support is added to
the ACPI driver for Intel Low-Power Subsystems (LPSS) and that
driver is modified to work around a couple of known BIOS issues.
Changes from Mika Westerberg and Heikki Krogerus.
The EC driver is fixed by Vasiliy Kulikov to use get_user() and
put_user() instead of dereferencing user space pointers blindly.
Code cleanups are made by Bjorn Helgaas, Nicholas Mazzuca and Toshi
Kani.
- Assorted power management updates
The "runtime idle" helper routine is changed to take the return
values of the callbacks executed by it into account and to call
rpm_suspend() if they return 0, which allows us to reduce the
overall code bloat a bit (by dropping some code that's not
necessary any more after that modification).
The runtime PM documentation is updated by Alan Stern (to reflect
the "runtime idle" behavior change).
New trace points for PM QoS are added by Sahara
(<keun-o.park@windriver.com>).
PM QoS documentation is updated by Lan Tianyu.
Code cleanups are made and minor issues are addressed by Bernie
Thompson, Bjorn Helgaas, Julius Werner, and Shuah Khan.

Konrad writes:
It has the 'feature-max-indirect-segments' implemented in both backend
and frontend. The current problem with the backend and frontend is that the
segment size is limited to 11 pages. It means we can at most squeeze in 44kB per
request. The ring can hold 32 (next power of two below 36) requests, meaning we
can do 1.4M of outstanding requests. Nowadays that is not enough.
The problem in the past was addressed in two ways - but neither one went upstream.
The first solution to this proposed by Justin from Spectralogic was to negotiate
the segment size. This means that the ‘struct blkif_sring_entry’ is now a variable size.
It can expand from 112 bytes (cover 11 pages of data - 44kB) to 1580 bytes
(256 pages of data - so 1MB). It is a simple extension by just making the array in the
request expand from 11 to a variable size negotiated. But it had limits: this extension
still limits the number of segments per request to 255 (as the total number must be
specified in the request, which only has an 8-bit field for that purpose).
The other solution (from Intel - Ronghui) was to create one extra ring that only has the
‘struct blkif_request_segment’ in them. The ‘struct blkif_request’ would be changed to have
an index in said ‘segment ring’. There is only one segment ring. This means that the size of
the initial ring is still the same. The requests would point to the segment and enumerate out
how many of the indexes it wants to use. The limit is of course the size of the segment.
If one assumes a one-page segment this means we can in one request cover ~4MB.
Those patches were posted as RFC and the author never followed up on the ideas on changing
it to be a bit more flexible.
There is yet another mechanism that could be employed (which these patches implement) - and it
borrows from VirtIO protocol. And that is the ‘indirect descriptors’. This very similar to
what Intel suggests, but with a twist. The twist is to negotiate how many of these
'segment' pages (aka indirect descriptor pages) we want to support (in reality we negotiate
how many entries in the segment we want to cover, and we module the number if it is
bigger than the segment size).
This means that with the existing 36 slots in the ring (single page) we can cover:
32 slots * each blkif_request_indirect covers: 512 * 4096 ~= 64M. Since we ample space
in the blkif_request_indirect to span more than one indirect page, that number (64M)
can be also multiplied by eight = 512MB.
Roger Pau Monne took the idea and implemented them in these patches. They work
great and the corner cases (migration between backends with and without this extension)
work nicely. The backend has a limit right now off how many indirect entries
it can handle: one indirect page, and at maximum 256 entries (out of 512 - so 50% of the page
is used). That comes out to 32 slots * 256 entries in a indirect page * 1 indirect page
per request * 4096 = 32MB.
This is a conservative number that can change in the future. Right now it strikes
a good balance between giving excellent performance, memory usage in the backend, and
balancing the needs of many guests.
In the patchset there is also the split of the blkback structure to be per-VBD.
This means that the spinlock contention we had with many guests trying to do I/O and
all the blkback threads hitting the same lock has been eliminated.
Also there are bug-fixes to deal with oddly sized sectors, insane amounts on
th ring, and also a security fix (posted earlier).
[Purpose of this patch]
As Vaibhav explained in the thread below, tracepoints for irq vectors
are useful.
http://www.spinics.net/lists/mm-commits/msg85707.html
<snip>
The current interrupt traces from irq_handler_entry and irq_handler_exit
provide when an interrupt is handled. They provide good data about when
the system has switched to kernel space and how it affects the currently
running processes.
There are some IRQ vectors which trigger the system into kernel space,
which are not handled in generic IRQ handlers. Tracing such events gives
us the information about IRQ interaction with other system events.
The trace also tells where the system is spending its time. We want to
know which cores are handling interrupts and how they are affecting other
processes in the system. Also, the trace provides information about when
the cores are idle and which interrupts are changing that state.
<snip>
On the other hand, my usecase is tracing just local timer event and
getting a value of instruction pointer.
I suggested to add an argument local timer event to get instruction pointer before.
But there is another way to get it with external module like systemtap.
So, I don't need to add any argument to irq vector tracepoints now.
[Patch Description]
Vaibhav's patch shared a trace point ,irq_vector_entry/irq_vector_exit, in all events.
But there is an above use case to trace specific irq_vector rather than tracing all events.
In this case, we are concerned about overhead due to unwanted events.
So, add following tracepoints instead of introducing irq_vector_entry/exit.
so that we can enable them independently.
- local_timer_vector
- reschedule_vector
- call_function_vector
- call_function_single_vector
- irq_work_entry_vector
- error_apic_vector
- thermal_apic_vector
- threshold_apic_vector
- spurious_apic_vector
- x86_platform_ipi_vector
Also, introduce a logic switching IDT at enabling/disabling time so that a time penalty
makes a zero when tracepoints are disabled. Detailed explanations are as follows.
- Create trace irq handlers with entering_irq()/exiting_irq().
- Create a new IDT, trace_idt_table, at boot time by adding a logic to
_set_gate(). It is just a copy of original idt table.
- Register the new handlers for tracpoints to the new IDT by introducing
macros to alloc_intr_gate() called at registering time of irq_vector handlers.
- Add checking, whether irq vector tracing is on/off, into load_current_idt().
This has to be done below debug checking for these reasons.
- Switching to debug IDT may be kicked while tracing is enabled.
- On the other hands, switching to trace IDT is kicked only when debugging
is disabled.
In addition, the new IDT is created only when CONFIG_TRACING is enabled to avoid being
used for other purposes.

Allow Xen tmem shim to be built/loaded as a module. Xen self-ballooning
and frontswap-selfshrinking are now also "lazily" initialized when the
Xen tmem shim is loaded as a module, unless explicitly disabled by
module parameters.
Note runtime dependency disallows loading if cleancache/frontswap lazy
initialization patches are not present.
If built-in (not built as a module), the original mechanism of enabling
via a kernel boot parameter is retained, but this should be considered
deprecated.
Note that module unload is explicitly not yet supported.

This patch tries to coalesce tx requests when constructing grant copy
structures. It enables netback to deal with situation when frontend's
MAX_SKB_FRAGS is larger than backend's MAX_SKB_FRAGS.
With the help of coalescing, this patch tries to address two regressions
avoid reopening the security hole in XSA-39.
Regression 1. The reduction of the number of supported ring entries (slots)
per packet (from 18 to 17). This regression has been around for some time but
remains unnoticed until XSA-39 security fix. This is fixed by coalescing
slots.
Regression 2. The XSA-39 security fix turning "too many frags" errors from
just dropping the packet to a fatal error and disabling the VIF. This is fixed
by coalescing slots (handling 18 slots when backend's MAX_SKB_FRAGS is 17)
which rules out false positive (using 18 slots is legit) and dropping packets
using 19 to `max_skb_slots` slots.
To avoid reopening security hole in XSA-39, frontend sending packet using more
than max_skb_slots is considered malicious.
The behavior of netback for packet is thus:
1-18 slots: valid
19-max_skb_slots slots: drop and respond with an error
max_skb_slots+ slots: fatal error
max_skb_slots is configurable by admin, default value is 20.
Also change variable name from "frags" to "slots" in netbk_count_requests.
Please note that RX path still has dependency on MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This will be
fixed with separate patch.

The maximum packet including header that can be handled by netfront / netback
wire format is 65535. Reduce gso_max_size accordingly.
Drop skb and print warning when skb->len > 65535. This can 1) save the effort
to send malformed packet to netback, 2) help spotting misconfiguration of
netfront in the future.

Indirect descriptors introduce a new block operation
(BLKIF_OP_INDIRECT) that passes grant references instead of segments
in the request. This grant references are filled with arrays of
blkif_request_segment_aligned, this way we can send more segments in a
request.
The proposed implementation sets the maximum number of indirect grefs
(frames filled with blkif_request_segment_aligned) to 256 in the
backend and 32 in the frontend. The value in the frontend has been
chosen experimentally, and the backend value has been set to a sane
value that allows expanding the maximum number of indirect descriptors
in the frontend if needed.
The migration code has changed from the previous implementation, in
which we simply remapped the segments on the shared ring. Now the
maximum number of segments allowed in a request can change depending
on the backend, so we have to requeue all the requests in the ring and
in the queue and split the bios in them if they are bigger than the
new maximum number of segments.
[v2: Fixed minor comments by Konrad.
[v1: Added padding to make the indirect request 64bit aligned.
Added some BUGs, comments; fixed number of indirect pages in

[the branch] has a bunch of fixes. They vary from being able to deal
with unknown requests, overflow in statistics, compile warnings, bug in
the error path, removal of unnecessary logic. There is also one
performance fix - which is to allocate pages for requests when the
driver loads - instead of doing it per request
For MSI-X capable devices the hypervisor wants to write protect the
MSI-X table and PBA, yet it can't assume that resources have been
assigned to their final values at device enumeration time. Thus have
pciback do that notification, as having the device controlled by it is
a prerequisite to assigning the device to guests anyway.
This is the kernel part of hypervisor side commit 4245d33 ("x86/MSI:
add mechanism to fully protect MSI-X table from PV guest accesses") on
the master branch of git://xenbits.xen.org/xen.git.

If the frontend is using a non-native protocol (e.g., a 64-bit
frontend with a 32-bit backend) and it sent an unrecognized request,
the request was not translated and the response would have the
incorrect ID. This may cause the frontend driver to behave
incorrectly or crash.
Since the ID field in the request is always in the same place,
regardless of the request type we can get the correct ID and make a
valid response (which will report BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP).
This bug affected 64-bit SLES 11 guests when using a 32-bit backend.
This guest does a BLKIF_OP_RESERVED_1 (BLKIF_OP_PACKET in the SLES
source) and would crash in blkif_int() as the ID in the response would
be invalid.

This patch create a file (xen-stub.c) for Xen stub drivers.
Xen stub drivers are used to reserve space for Xen drivers, i.e.
memory hotplug and cpu hotplug, and to block native drivers loaded,
so that real Xen drivers can be modular and loaded on demand.
This patch is specific for Xen memory hotplug (other Xen logic
can add stub drivers on their own). The xen stub driver will
occupied earlier via subsys_initcall (than native memory hotplug
driver via module_init and so blocking native). Later real Xen
memory hotplug logic will unregister the stub driver and register
itself to take effect on demand.

PAD is acpi Processor Aggregator Device which provides a control point

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.
