- Basic hypervisor.h and interface.h definitions. - Skeleton enlighten.c, set xen_start_info to an empty struct. - Make xen_initial_domain dependent on the SIF_PRIVILIGED_BIT. The new code only compiles when CONFIG_XEN is set, that is going to be added to arch/arm/Kconfig in patch #11 "xen/arm: introduce CONFIG_XEN on ARM". Changes in v3: - improve comments.

bind_evtchn_to_irqhandler can legitimately return 0 (irq 0): it is not an error. If Linux is running as an HVM domain and is running as Dom0, use xenstored_local_init to initialize the xenstore page and event channel. Changes in v4: - do not xs_reset_watches on dom0. Changes in v2: - refactor xenbus_init.

Commit 644595f8 ("compat: Handle COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME in net/socket.c") introduced a bug where the helper functions to take either a 64-bit or compat time[spec|val] got the arguments in the wrong order, passing the kernel stack pointer off as a user pointer (and vice versa). Because of the user address range check, that in turn then causes an EFAULT due to the user pointer range checking failing for the kernel address. Incorrectly resuling in a failed system call for 32-bit processes with a 64-bit kernel. On odder architectures like HP-PA (with separate user/kernel address spaces), it can be used read kernel memory.

Callers of xen_remap_domain_range() need to know if the remap failed because frame is currently paged out. So they can retry the remap later on. Return -ENOENT in this case. This assumes that the error codes returned by Xen are a subset of those used by the kernel. It is unclear if this is defined as part of the hypercall ABI.

Ronny Hegewald authored
When running 32-bit pvops-dom0 and a driver tries to allocate a coherent DMA-memory the xen swiotlb-implementation returned memory beyond 4GB. The underlaying reason is that if the supplied driver passes in a DMA_BIT_MASK(64) ( hwdev->coherent_dma_mask is set to 0xffffffffffffffff) our dma_mask will be u64 set to 0xffffffffffffffff even if we set it to DMA_BIT_MASK(32) previously. Meaning we do not reset the upper bits. By using the dma_alloc_coherent_mask function - it does the proper casting and we get 0xfffffffff. This caused not working sound on a system with 4 GB and a 64-bit compatible sound-card with sets the DMA-mask to 64bit. On bare-metal and the forward-ported xen-dom0 patches from OpenSuse a coherent DMA-memory is always allocated inside the 32-bit address-range by calling dma_alloc_coherent_mask. This patch adds the same functionality to xen swiotlb and is a rebase of the original patch from Ronny Hegewald which never got upstream b/c the underlaying reason was not understood until now. The original email with the original patch is in: http://old-list-archives.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2010-02/msg00038.html the original thread from where the discussion started is in: http://old-list-archives.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2010-01/msg00928.htmlSigned-off-by: Ronny Hegewald <ronny.hegewald@online.de> Signed-off-by: Stefano Panella <stefano.panella@citrix.com> Acked-By: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com> CC: stable@vger.kernel.org

While TLB_FLUSH_ALL gets passed as 'end' argument to flush_tlb_others(), the Xen code was made to check its 'start' parameter. That may give a incorrect op.cmd to MMUEXT_INVLPG_MULTI instead of MMUEXT_TLB_FLUSH_MULTI. Then it causes some page can not be flushed from TLB. This patch fixed this issue.

We would traverse the full P2M top directory (from 0->MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES inclusive) when trying to figure out whether we can re-use some of the P2M middle leafs. Which meant that if the kernel was compiled with MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES=512 we would try to use the 512th entry. Fortunately for us the p2m_top_index has a check for this: BUG_ON(pfn >= MAX_P2M_PFN); which we hit and saw this: (XEN) domain_crash_sync called from entry.S (XEN) Domain 0 (vcpu#0) crashed on cpu#0: (XEN) ----[ Xen-4.1.2-OVM x86_64 debug=n Tainted: C ]---- (XEN) CPU: 0 (XEN) RIP: e033:[<ffffffff819cadeb>] (XEN) RFLAGS: 0000000000000212 EM: 1 CONTEXT: pv guest (XEN) rax: ffffffff81db5000 rbx: ffffffff81db4000 rcx: 0000000000000000 (XEN) rdx: 0000000000480211 rsi: 0000000000000000 rdi: ffffffff81db4000 (XEN) rbp: ffffffff81793db8 rsp: ffffffff81793d38 r8: 0000000008000000 (XEN) r9: 4000000000000000 r10: 0000000000000000 r11: ffffffff81db7000 (XEN) r12: 0000000000000ff8 r13: ffffffff81df1ff8 r14: ffffffff81db6000 (XEN) r15: 0000000000000ff8 cr0: 000000008005003b cr4: 00000000000026f0 (XEN) cr3: 0000000661795000 cr2: 0000000000000000 Fixes-Oracle-Bug: 14570662 CC: stable@vger.kernel.org # only for v3.5 Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>

patch_instruction() can be called very early on ppc32, when the kernel isn't yet running at it's linked address. That can cause the ! is_kernel_addr() test in __put_user() to trip and call might_sleep() which is very bad at that point during boot. Use a lower level function instead for now, at least until we get to rework ppc32 boot process to do the code patching later, like ppc64 does.
