Introduces the Xen pvSCSI backend. With pvSCSI it is possible for a Xen domU to issue SCSI commands to a SCSI LUN assigned to that domU. The SCSI commands are passed to the pvSCSI backend in a driver domain (usually Dom0) which is owner of the physical device. This allows e.g. to use SCSI tape drives in a Xen domU. The code is taken from the pvSCSI implementation in Xen done by Fujitsu based on Linux kernel 2.6.18. Changes from the original version are: - port to upstream kernel - put all code in just one source file - adapt to Linux style guide - use target core infrastructure instead doing pure pass-through - enable module unloading - support SG-list in grant page(s) - support task abort - remove redundant struct backend - allocate resources dynamically - correct minor error in scsiback_fast_flush_area - free allocated resources in case of error during I/O preparation - remove CDB emulation, now handled by target core infrastructure Signed-off-by: NJuergen Gross <jgross@suse.com> Reviewed-by: NNicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org> Signed-off-by: NDavid Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com>

This patch enables EFI usage under Xen dom0. Standard EFI Linux Kernel infrastructure cannot be used because it requires direct access to EFI data and code. However, in dom0 case it is not possible because above mentioned EFI stuff is fully owned and controlled by Xen hypervisor. In this case all calls from dom0 to EFI must be requested via special hypercall which in turn executes relevant EFI code in behalf of dom0. When dom0 kernel boots it checks for EFI availability on a machine. If it is detected then artificial EFI system table is filled. Native EFI callas are replaced by functions which mimics them by calling relevant hypercall. Later pointer to EFI system table is passed to standard EFI machinery and it continues EFI subsystem initialization taking into account that there is no direct access to EFI boot services, runtime, tables, structures, etc. After that system runs as usual. This patch is based on Jan Beulich and Tang Liang work.

Since c275a57f "xen/balloon: Set balloon's initial state to number of existing RAM pages" the balloon driver appears to work fine on ARM as far as I can tell. Prior to that commit it was broken because on ARM RAM doesn't typically start at zero, effectively leaving a big MMIO hole at the start. This would cause the balloon driver to give away all of RAM at start of day, which is rather inconvenient. It was already enabled (or rather not excluded) on ARM64. The c1d15f5c "xen/balloon: Seperate the auto-translate logic properly (v2)" added in the proper plumbing to work with ARM and PVH type guests.

Xen on arm and arm64 needs SWIOTLB_XEN: when running on Xen we need to program the hardware with mfns rather than pfns for dma addresses. Remove SWIOTLB_XEN dependency on X86 and PCI and make XEN select SWIOTLB_XEN on arm and arm64. At the moment always rely on swiotlb-xen, but when Xen starts supporting hardware IOMMUs we'll be able to avoid it conditionally on the presence of an IOMMU on the platform. Implement xen_create_contiguous_region on arm and arm64: for the moment we assume that dom0 has been mapped 1:1 (physical addresses == machine addresses) therefore we don't need to call XENMEM_exchange. Simply return the physical address as dma address. Initialize the xen-swiotlb from xen_early_init (before the native dma_ops are initialized), set xen_dma_ops to &xen_swiotlb_dma_ops.

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.

With the Xen ACPI stub code (CONFIG_XEN_STUB=y) enabled, the power C and P states are no longer uploaded to the hypervisor. The reason is that the Xen CPU hotplug code: xen-acpi-cpuhotplug.c and the xen-acpi-stub.c register themselves as the "processor" type object. That means the generic processor (processor_driver.c) stops working and it does not call (acpi_processor_add) which populates the per_cpu(processors, pr->id) = pr; structure. The 'pr' is gathered from the acpi_processor_get_info function which does the job of finding the C-states and figuring out PBLK address. The 'processors->pr' is then later used by xen-acpi-processor.c (the one that uploads C and P states to the hypervisor). Since it is NULL, we end skip the gathering of _PSD, _PSS, _PCT, etc and never upload the power management data. The end result is that enabling the CONFIG_XEN_STUB in the build means that xen-acpi-processor is not working anymore. This temporary patch fixes it by marking the XEN_STUB driver as BROKEN until this can be properly fixed. CC: jinsong.liu@intel.com Signed-off-by: NKonrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>

This driver solves three problems: 1). Parse and upload ACPI0007 (or PROCESSOR_TYPE) information to the hypervisor - aka P-states (cpufreq data). 2). Upload the the Cx state information (cpuidle data). 3). Inhibit CPU frequency scaling drivers from loading. The reason for wanting to solve 1) and 2) is such that the Xen hypervisor is the only one that knows the CPU usage of different guests and can make the proper decision of when to put CPUs and packages in proper states. Unfortunately the hypervisor has no support to parse ACPI DSDT tables, hence it needs help from the initial domain to provide this information. The reason for 3) is that we do not want the initial domain to change P-states while the hypervisor is doing it as well - it causes rather some funny cases of P-states transitions. For this to work, the driver parses the Power Management data and uploads said information to the Xen hypervisor. It also calls acpi_processor_notify_smm() to inhibit the other CPU frequency scaling drivers from being loaded. Everything revolves around the 'struct acpi_processor' structure which gets updated during the bootup cycle in different stages. At the startup, when the ACPI parser starts, the C-state information is processed (processor_idle) and saved in said structure as 'power' element. Later on, the CPU frequency scaling driver (powernow-k8 or acpi_cpufreq), would call the the acpi_processor_* (processor_perflib functions) to parse P-states information and populate in the said structure the 'performance' element. Since we do not want the CPU frequency scaling drivers from loading we have to call the acpi_processor_* functions to parse the P-states and call "acpi_processor_notify_smm" to stop them from loading. There is also one oddity in this driver which is that under Xen, the physical online CPU count can be different from the virtual online CPU count. Meaning that the macros 'for_[online|possible]_cpu' would process only up to virtual online CPU count. We on the other hand want to process the full amount of physical CPUs. For that, the driver checks if the ACPI IDs count is different from the APIC ID count - which can happen if the user choose to use dom0_max_vcpu argument. In such a case a backup of the PM structure is used and uploaded to the hypervisor. [v1-v2: Initial RFC implementations that were posted] [v3: Changed the name to passthru suggested by Pasi Kärkkäinen <pasik@iki.fi>] [v4: Added vCPU != pCPU support - aka dom0_max_vcpus support] [v5: Cleaned up the driver, fix bug under Athlon XP] [v6: Changed the driver to a CPU frequency governor] [v7: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com> suggestion to make it a cpufreq scaling driver made me rework it as driver that inhibits cpufreq scaling driver] [v8: Per Jan's review comments, fixed up the driver] [v9: Allow to continue even if acpi_processor_preregister_perf.. fails] Signed-off-by: NKonrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>

This is the host side counterpart to the frontend driver in drivers/pci/xen-pcifront.c. The PV protocol is also implemented by frontend drivers in other OSes too, such as the BSDs. The PV protocol is rather simple. There is page shared with the guest, which has the 'struct xen_pci_sharedinfo' embossed in it. The backend has a thread that is kicked every-time the structure is changed and based on the operation field it performs specific tasks: XEN_PCI_OP_conf_[read|write]: Read/Write 0xCF8/0xCFC filtered data. (conf_space*.c) Based on which field is probed, we either enable/disable the PCI device, change power state, read VPD, etc. The major goal of this call is to provide a Physical IRQ (PIRQ) to the guest. The PIRQ is Xen hypervisor global IRQ value irrespective of the IRQ is tied in to the IO-APIC, or is a vector. For GSI type interrupts, the PIRQ==GSI holds. For MSI/MSI-X the PIRQ value != Linux IRQ number (thought PIRQ==vector). Please note, that with Xen, all interrupts (except those level shared ones) are injected directly to the guest - there is no host interaction. XEN_PCI_OP_[enable|disable]_msi[|x] (pciback_ops.c) Enables/disables the MSI/MSI-X capability of the device. These operations setup the MSI/MSI-X vectors for the guest and pass them to the frontend. When the device is activated, the interrupts are directly injected in the guest without involving the host. XEN_PCI_OP_aer_[detected|resume|mmio|slotreset]: In case of failure, perform the appropriate AER commands on the guest. Right now that is a cop-out - we just kill the guest. Besides implementing those commands, it can also - hide a PCI device from the host. When booting up, the user can specify xen-pciback.hide=(1:0:0)(BDF..) so that host does not try to use the device. The driver was lifted from linux-2.6.18.hg tree and fixed up so that it could compile under v3.0. Per suggestion from Jesse Barnes moved the driver to drivers/xen/xen-pciback.

This patch introduces two in-kernel drivers for Xen transcendent memory ("tmem") functionality that complement cleancache and frontswap. Both use control theory to dynamically adjust and optimize memory utilization. Selfballooning controls the in-kernel Xen balloon driver, targeting a goal value (vm_committed_as), thus pushing less frequently used clean page cache pages (through the cleancache code) into Xen tmem where Xen can balance needs across all VMs residing on the physical machine. Frontswap-selfshrinking controls the number of pages in frontswap, driving it towards zero (effectively doing a partial swapoff) when in-kernel memory pressure subsides, freeing up RAM for other VMs. More detail is provided in the header comment of xen-selfballooning.c.
