Currently there is a number of issues preventing PVHVM Xen guests from
doing successful kexec/kdump:
- Bound event channels.
- Registered vcpu_info.
- PIRQ/emuirq mappings.
- shared_info frame after XENMAPSPACE_shared_info operation.
- Active grant mappings.
Basically, newly booted kernel stumbles upon already set up Xen
interfaces and there is no way to reestablish them. In Xen-4.7 a new
feature called 'soft reset' is coming. A guest performing kexec/kdump
operation is supposed to call SCHEDOP_shutdown hypercall with
SHUTDOWN_soft_reset reason before jumping to new kernel. Hypervisor
(with some help from toolstack) will do full domain cleanup (but
keeping its memory and vCPU contexts intact) returning the guest to
the state it had when it was first booted and thus allowing it to
start over.
Doing SHUTDOWN_soft_reset on Xen hypervisors which don't support it is
probably OK as by default all unknown shutdown reasons cause domain
destroy with a message in toolstack log: 'Unknown shutdown reason code
5. Destroying domain.' which gives a clue to what the problem is and
eliminates false expectations.

Based on include/xen/mm.h [1], Linux is mistakenly using MFN when GFN
is meant, I suspect this is because the first support for Xen was for
PV. This resulted in some misimplementation of helpers on ARM and
confused developers about the expected behavior.
For instance, with pfn_to_mfn, we expect to get an MFN based on the name.
Although, if we look at the implementation on x86, it's returning a GFN.
For clarity and avoid new confusion, replace any reference to mfn with
gfn in any helpers used by PV drivers. The x86 code will still keep some
reference of pfn_to_mfn which may be used by all kind of guests
No changes as been made in the hypercall field, even
though they may be invalid, in order to keep the same as the defintion
in xen repo.
Note that page_to_mfn has been renamed to xen_page_to_gfn to avoid a
name to close to the KVM function gfn_to_page.
Take also the opportunity to simplify simple construction such
as pfn_to_mfn(page_to_pfn(page)) into xen_page_to_gfn. More complex clean up
will come in follow-up patches.

Xen's PV network protocol includes messages to add/remove ethernet
multicast addresses to/from a filter list in the backend. This allows
the frontend to request the backend only forward multicast packets
which are of interest thus preventing unnecessary noise on the shared
ring.
The canonical netif header in git://xenbits.xen.org/xen.git specifies
the message format (two more XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPEs) so the minimal
necessary changes have been pulled into include/xen/interface/io/netif.h.
To prevent the frontend from extending the multicast filter list
arbitrarily a limit (XEN_NETBK_MCAST_MAX) has been set to 64 entries.
This limit is not specified by the protocol and so may change in future.
If the limit is reached then the next XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPE_MCAST_ADD
sent by the frontend will be failed with NETIF_RSP_ERROR.

Currently, the event channel rebind code is gated with the presence of
the vector callback.
The virtual interrupt controller on ARM has the concept of per-CPU
interrupt (PPI) which allow us to support per-VCPU event channel.
Therefore there is no need of vector callback for ARM.
Xen is already using a free PPI to notify the guest VCPU of an event.
Furthermore, the xen code initialization in Linux (see
arch/arm/xen/enlighten.c) is requesting correctly a per-CPU IRQ.
Introduce new helper xen_support_evtchn_rebind to allow architecture
decide whether rebind an event is support or not. It will always return
true on ARM and keep the same behavior on x86.
This is also allow us to drop the usage of xen_have_vector_callback

Commit 77e32c89a7 ("clockevents: Manage device's state separately for
the core") decouples clockevent device's modes from states. With this
change when a Xen guest tries to resume, it won't be calling its
set_mode op which needs to be done on each VCPU in order to make the
hypervisor aware that we are in oneshot mode.
This happens because clockevents_tick_resume() (which is an intermediate
step of resuming ticks on a processor) doesn't call clockevents_set_state()
anymore and because during suspend clockevent devices on all VCPUs (except
for the one doing the suspend) are left in ONESHOT state. As result, during
resume the clockevents state machine will assume that device is already
where it should be and doesn't need to be updated.
To avoid this problem we should suspend ticks on all VCPUs during
suspend.

Make the IOCTL_PRIVCMD_MMAPBATCH_V2 (and older V1 version) map
multiple frames at a time rather than one at a time, despite the pages
being non-consecutive GFNs.
xen_remap_foreign_mfn_array() is added which maps an array of GFNs
(instead of a consecutive range of GFNs).
Since per-frame errors are returned in an array, privcmd must set the
MMAPBATCH_V1 error bits as part of the "report errors" phase, after
all the frames are mapped.
Migrate times are significantly improved (when using a PV toolstack
domain). For example, for an idle 12 GiB PV guest:

Hypercalls submitted by user space tools via the privcmd driver can
take a long time (potentially many 10s of seconds) if the hypercall
has many sub-operations.
A fully preemptible kernel may deschedule such as task in any upcall
called from a hypercall continuation.
However, in a kernel with voluntary or no preemption, hypercall
continuations in Xen allow event handlers to be run but the task
issuing the hypercall will not be descheduled until the hypercall is
complete and the ioctl returns to user space. These long running
tasks may also trigger the kernel's soft lockup detection.
Add xen_preemptible_hcall_begin() and xen_preemptible_hcall_end() to
bracket hypercalls that may be preempted. Use these in the privcmd
driver.
When returning from an upcall, call xen_maybe_preempt_hcall() which
adds a schedule point if if the current task was within a preemptible
hypercall.
Since _cond_resched() can move the task to a different CPU, clear and
set xen_in_preemptible_hcall around the call.

In an x86 PV guest, get_user_pages_fast() on a userspace address range
containing foreign mappings does not work correctly because the M2P
lookup of the MFN from a userspace PTE may return the wrong page.
Force get_user_pages_fast() to fail on such addresses by marking the PTEs
as special.
If Xen has XENFEAT_gnttab_map_avail_bits (available since at least
4.0), we can do so efficiently in the grant map hypercall. Otherwise,
it needs to be done afterwards. This is both inefficient and racy
(the mapping is visible to the task before we fixup the PTEs), but
will be fine for well-behaved applications that do not use the mapping
until after the mmap() system call returns.
Guests with XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap (ARM and x86 HVM or PVH)
do not need this since get_user_pages() has always worked correctly
for them.

Introduce gnttab_unmap_refs_async() that can be used to safely unmap
pages that may be in use (ref count > 1). If the pages are in use the
unmap is deferred and retried later. This polling is not very clever
but it should be good enough if the cases where the delay is necessary
are rare.
The initial delay is 5 ms and is increased linearly on each subsequent
retry (to reduce load if the page is in use for a long time).
This is needed to allow block backends using grant mapping to safely
use network storage (block or filesystem based such as iSCSI or NFS).
The network storage driver may complete a block request whilst there
is a queued network packet retry (because the ack from the remote end
races with deciding to queue the retry). The pages for the retried
packet would be grant unmapped and the network driver (or hardware)
would access the unmapped page.

Using the native code here can't work properly, as the hypervisor would
normally have cleared the two reason bits by the time Dom0 gets to see
the NMI (if passed to it at all). There's a shared info field for this,
and there's an existing hook to use - just fit the two together. This
is particularly relevant so that NMIs intended to be handled by APEI /
GHES actually make it to the respective handler.
Note that the hook can (and should) be used irrespective of whether
being in Dom0, as accessing port 0x61 in a DomU would be even worse,
while the shared info field would just hold zero all the time. Note
further that hardware NMI handling for PVH doesn't currently work
anyway due to missing code in the hypervisor (but it is expected to

Add the definition of pvSCSI protocol used between the pvSCSI frontend
in a XEN domU and the pvSCSI backend in a XEN driver domain (usually
Dom0).
This header was originally provided by Fujitsu for Xen based on Linux
2.6.18. Changes are:
- Added comments.
- Adapt to Linux style guide.
- Add support for larger SG-lists by putting them in an own granted
page.
- Remove stale definitions.

The flag tells us that the hypervisor maps a grant page to guest
physical address == machine address of the page in addition to the
normal grant mapping address. It is needed to properly issue cache
maintenance operation at the completion of a DMA operation involving a
foreign grant.

x86/xen: safely map and unmap grant frames when in atomic context
arch_gnttab_map_frames() and arch_gnttab_unmap_frames() are called in
atomic context but were calling alloc_vm_area() which might sleep.
Also, if a driver attempts to allocate a grant ref from an interrupt
and the table needs expanding, then the CPU may already by in lazy MMU
mode and apply_to_page_range() will BUG when it tries to re-enable
lazy MMU mode.
These two functions are only used in PV guests.
Introduce arch_gnttab_init() to allocates the virtual address space in
advance.
Avoid the use of apply_to_page_range() by using saving and using the
array of PTE addresses from the alloc_vm_area() call (which ensures
that the required page tables are pre-allocated).

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.

Pull block driver changes from Jens Axboe:
"Now that the core bits are in, here's the pull request for the driver
related changes for 3.16. Nothing out of the ordinary here, mostly
business as usual. There are a few pulls of for-3.16/core into this
branch, which were done when the blk-mq was modified after the
mtip32xx conversion was put in.
The pull request contains:
- skd and cciss converted to use pci_enable_msix_exact(). From
Alexander Gordeev.
- A few mtip32xx fixes from Asai @ Micron.
- The conversion of mtip32xx from make_request_fn to blk-mq, and a
later small fix for that conversion on quiescing for non-queued IO.
From me.
- A fix for bsg to use an exported function to check whether this
driver is request based or not. Needed updating for blk-mq, which
is request based, but does not have a request_fn hook. From me.
- Small floppy bug fix from Jiri.
- A series of cleanups for the cdrom uniform layer from Joe Perches.
Gets rid of various old ugly macros, making the code conform more
to the modern coding style.
- A series of patches for drbd from the drbd crew (Lars Ellenberg and
Philipp Reisner).
- A use-after-free fix for null_blk from Ming Lei.
- Also from Ming Lei is a performance patch for virtio-blk, which can
net us a 3x win on kvm platforms where world notification is
expensive.
- Ming Lei also fixed a stall issue in virtio-blk, due to a race
between queue start/stop and resource limits.
- A small batch of fixes for xen-blk{back,front} from Olaf Hering and
Valentin Priescu"
