Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk b930fe5e1f xen/acpi: Workaround broken BIOSes exporting non-existing C-states.
We did a similar check for the P-states but did not do it for
the C-states. What we want to do is ignore cases where the DSDT
has definition for sixteen CPUs, but the machine only has eight
CPUs and we get:
xen-acpi-processor: (CX): Hypervisor error (-22) for ACPI CPU14

Stefano Stabellini 521394e4e6 xen: use the pirq number to check the pirq_eoi_map
In pirq_check_eoi_map use the pirq number rather than the Linux irq
number to check whether an eoi is needed in the pirq_eoi_map.

The reason is that the irq number is not always identical to the
pirq number so if we wrongly use the irq number to check the
pirq_eoi_map we are going to check for the wrong pirq to EOI.

As a consequence some interrupts might not be EOI'ed by the
guest correctly.

Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 3066616ce2 xen/xenbus: Add quirk to deal with misconfigured backends.
A rather annoying and common case is when booting a PVonHVM guest
and exposing the PV KBD and PV VFB - as broken toolstacks don't
always initialize the backends correctly.

Normally The HVM guest is using the VGA driver and the emulated
keyboard for this (though upstream version of QEMU implements
PV KBD, but still uses a VGA driver). We provide a very basic
two-stage wait mechanism - where we wait for 30 seconds for all
devices, and then for 270 for all them except the two mentioned.

That allows us to wait for the essential devices, like network
or disk for the full 6 minutes.

To trigger this, put this in your guest config:

vfb = [ 'vnc=1, vnclisten=0.0.0.0 ,vncunused=1']

instead of this:
vnc=1
vnclisten="0.0.0.0"

Stefano Stabellini e8e937be97 xen/gntdev: do not set VM_PFNMAP
Since we are using the m2p_override we do have struct pages
corresponding to the user vma mmap'ed by gntdev.

Removing the VM_PFNMAP flag makes get_user_pages work on that vma.
An example test case would be using a Xen userspace block backend

Jan Beulich 0ee46eca04 xen/pciback: fix XEN_PCI_OP_enable_msix result
Prior to 2.6.19 and as of 2.6.31, pci_enable_msix() can return a
positive value to indicate the number of vectors (less than the amount
requested) that can be set up for a given device. Returning this as an
operation value (secondary result) is fine, but (primary) operation
results are expected to be negative (error) or zero (success) according
to the protocol. With the frontend fixed to match the XenoLinux
behavior, the backend can now validly return zero (success) here,
passing the upper limit on the number of vectors in op->value.

Linus Torvalds 58bca4a8fa Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.linaro.org/people/mszyprowski/linux-dma-mapping
Pull DMA mapping branch from Marek Szyprowski:
 "Short summary for the whole series:

  A few limitations have been identified in the current dma-mapping
  design and its implementations for various architectures.  There exist
  more than one function for allocating and freeing the buffers:
  currently these 3 are used dma_{alloc, free}_coherent,
  dma_{alloc,free}_writecombine, dma_{alloc,free}_noncoherent.

  For most of the systems these calls are almost equivalent and can be
  interchanged.  For others, especially the truly non-coherent ones
  (like ARM), the difference can be easily noticed in overall driver
  performance.  Sadly not all architectures provide implementations for
  all of them, so the drivers might need to be adapted and cannot be
  easily shared between different architectures.  The provided patches
  unify all these functions and hide the differences under the already
  existing dma attributes concept.  The thread with more references is
  available here:

    http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-sh/msg09777.html

  These patches are also a prerequisite for unifying DMA-mapping
  implementation on ARM architecture with the common one provided by
  dma_map_ops structure and extending it with IOMMU support.  More
  information is available in the following thread:

    http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cross-arch/12819

  More works on dma-mapping framework are planned, especially in the
  area of buffer sharing and managing the shared mappings (together with
  the recently introduced dma_buf interface: commit d15bd7ee44
  "dma-buf: Introduce dma buffer sharing mechanism").

  The patches in the current set introduce a new alloc/free methods
  (with support for memory attributes) in dma_map_ops structure, which
  will later replace dma_alloc_coherent and dma_alloc_writecombine
  functions."

People finally started piping up with support for merging this, so I'm
merging it as the last of the pending stuff from the merge window.
Looks like pohmelfs is going to wait for 3.5 and more external support
for merging.

Stefano Stabellini 9846ff10af xen: support pirq_eoi_map
The pirq_eoi_map is a bitmap offered by Xen to check which pirqs need to
be EOI'd without having to issue an hypercall every time.
We use PHYSDEVOP_pirq_eoi_gmfn_v2 to map the bitmap, then if we
succeed we use pirq_eoi_map to check whether pirqs need eoi.

Changes in v3:

- explicitly use PHYSDEVOP_pirq_eoi_gmfn_v2 rather than
PHYSDEVOP_pirq_eoi_gmfn;

- introduce pirq_check_eoi_map, a function to check if a pirq needs an
eoi using the map;

-rename pirq_needs_eoi into pirq_needs_eoi_flag;

- introduce a function pointer called pirq_needs_eoi that is going to be
set to the right implementation depending on the availability of
PHYSDEVOP_pirq_eoi_gmfn_v2.

Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 59a5680291 xen/acpi-processor: C and P-state driver that uploads said data to hypervisor.
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.

Stefano Stabellini 42c46e6ba5 xen/xenbus: ignore console/0
Unfortunately xend creates a bogus console/0 frotend/backend entry pair
on xenstore that console backends cannot properly cope with.
Any guest behavior that is not completely ignoring console/0 is going
to either cause problems with xenconsoled or qemu.
Returning 0 or -ENODEV from xencons_probe is not enough because it is
going to cause the frontend state to become 4 or 6 respectively.
The best possible thing we can do here is just ignore the entry from
xenbus_probe_frontend.

Jan Beulich bd0d5aa417 xenbus: don't free other end details too early
The individual drivers' remove functions could legitimately attempt to
access this information (for logging messages if nothing else). Note
that I did not in fact observe a problem anywhere, but I came across
this while looking into the reasons for what turned out to need the
fix at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/5/336 to vsprintf().
