This adds the API for userspace to instantiate an XICS device in a VM
and connect VCPUs to it. The API consists of a new device type for
the KVM_CREATE_DEVICE ioctl, a new capability KVM_CAP_IRQ_XICS, which
functions similarly to KVM_CAP_IRQ_MPIC, and the KVM_IRQ_LINE ioctl,
which is used to assert and deassert interrupt inputs of the XICS.
The XICS device has one attribute group, KVM_DEV_XICS_GRP_SOURCES.
Each attribute within this group corresponds to the state of one
interrupt source. The attribute number is the same as the interrupt
source number.
This does not support irq routing or irqfd yet.

For pseries machine emulation, in order to move the interrupt
controller code to the kernel, we need to intercept some RTAS
calls in the kernel itself. This adds an infrastructure to allow
in-kernel handlers to be registered for RTAS services by name.
A new ioctl, KVM_PPC_RTAS_DEFINE_TOKEN, then allows userspace to
associate token values with those service names. Then, when the
guest requests an RTAS service with one of those token values, it
will be handled by the relevant in-kernel handler rather than being
passed up to userspace as at present.

Enabling this capability connects the vcpu to the designated in-kernel
MPIC. Using explicit connections between vcpus and irqchips allows
for flexibility, but the main benefit at the moment is that it
simplifies the code -- KVM doesn't need vm-global state to remember
which MPIC object is associated with this vm, and it doesn't need to
care about ordering between irqchip creation and vcpu creation.

Currently, devices that are emulated inside KVM are configured in a
hardcoded manner based on an assumption that any given architecture
only has one way to do it. If there's any need to access device state,
it is done through inflexible one-purpose-only IOCTLs (e.g.
KVM_GET/SET_LAPIC). Defining new IOCTLs for every little thing is
cumbersome and depletes a limited numberspace.
This API provides a mechanism to instantiate a device of a certain
type, returning an ID that can be used to set/get attributes of the
device. Attributes may include configuration parameters (e.g.
register base address), device state, operational commands, etc. It
is similar to the ONE_REG API, except that it acts on devices rather
than vcpus.
Both device types and individual attributes can be tested without having
to create the device or get/set the attribute, without the need for
separately managing enumerated capabilities.

We have a capability enquire system that allows user space to ask kvm
whether a feature is available.
The point behind this system is that we can have different kernel
configurations with different capabilities and user space can adjust
accordingly.
Because features can always be non existent, we can drop any #ifdefs
on CAP defines that could be used generically, like the irq routing
bits. These can be easily reused for non-IOAPIC systems as well.

In the UAPI header files, __BIG_ENDIAN and __LITTLE_ENDIAN must be
compared against __BYTE_ORDER in preprocessor conditionals where these are
exposed to userspace (that is they're not inside __KERNEL__ conditionals).
However, in the main kernel the norm is to check for
"defined(__XXX_ENDIAN)" rather than comparing against __BYTE_ORDER and
this has incorrectly leaked into the userspace headers.
The definition of struct mdp_superblock_s in linux/raid/md_p.h is wrong in
this way. Note that userspace will likely interpret the ordering of the
fields incorrectly as the big-endian variant on a little-endian machines -
depending on header inclusion order.

Josef has another pass at fsync performance. The big change here is
to combine waiting for metadata with waiting for data, which is a big

The ptrace interface for metag provides access to some core register
sets using the PTRACE_GETREGSET and PTRACE_SETREGSET operations. The
details of the internal context structures is abstracted into user API
structures to both ease use and allow flexibility to change the internal
context layouts. Copyin and copyout functions for these register sets
are exposed to allow signal handling code to use them to copy to and
from the signal context.
struct user_gp_regs (NT_PRSTATUS) provides access to the core general
purpose register context.
struct user_cb_regs (NT_METAG_CBUF) provides access to the TXCATCH*
registers which contains information abuot a memory fault, unaligned
access error or watchpoint. This can be modified to alter the way the
fault is replayed on resume ("catch replay"), or to prevent the replay
taking place.
struct user_rp_state (NT_METAG_RPIPE) provides access to the state of
the Meta read pipeline which can be used to hide memory latencies in
hand optimised data loops.
Extended DSP register state, DSP RAM, and hardware breakpoint registers
aren't yet exposed through ptrace.

This patch introduces enhanced message support that allows the
device-mapper core to recognise messages that are common to all devices,
and for messages to return data to userspace.
Core messages are processed by the function "message_for_md". If the
device mapper doesn't support the message, it is passed to the target
driver.
If the message returns data, the kernel sets the flag
DM_MESSAGE_OUT_FLAG.

Device-mapper ioctls receive and send data in a buffer supplied
by userspace. The buffer has two parts. The first part contains
a 'struct dm_ioctl' and has a fixed size. The second part depends
on the ioctl and has a variable size.
This patch recognises the specific ioctls that do not use the variable
part of the buffer and skips allocating memory for it.
In particular, when a device is suspended and a resume ioctl is sent,
this now avoid memory allocation completely.
The variable "struct dm_ioctl tmp" is moved from the function
copy_params to its caller ctl_ioctl and renamed to param_kernel.
It is used directly when the ioctl function doesn't need any arguments.

Currently, the NBD device does not accept flush requests from the Linux
block layer. If the NBD server opened the target with neither O_SYNC nor
O_DSYNC, however, the device will be effectively backed by a writeback
cache. Without issuing flushes properly, operation of the NBD device will
not be safe against power losses.
The NBD protocol has support for both a cache flush command and a FUA
command flag; the server will also pass a flag to note its support for
these features. This patch adds support for the cache flush command and
flag. In the kernel, we receive the flags via the NBD_SET_FLAGS ioctl,
and map NBD_FLAG_SEND_FLUSH to the argument of blk_queue_flush. When the
flag is active the block layer will send REQ_FLUSH requests, which we
translate to NBD_CMD_FLUSH commands.
FUA support is not included in this patch because all free software
servers implement it with a full fdatasync; thus it has no advantage over
supporting flush only. Because I [Paolo] cannot really benchmark it in a
realistic scenario, I cannot tell if it is a good idea or not. It is also
not clear if it is valid for an NBD server to support FUA but not flush.
The Linux block layer gives a warning for this combination, the NBD
protocol documentation says nothing about it.
The patch also fixes a small problem in the handling of flags: nbd->flags
must be cleared at the end of NBD_DO_IT, but the driver was not doing
that. The bug manifests itself as follows. Suppose you two different
client/server pairs to start the NBD device. Suppose also that the first
client supports NBD_SET_FLAGS, and the first server sends
NBD_FLAG_SEND_FLUSH; the second pair instead does neither of these two
things. Before this patch, the second invocation of NBD_DO_IT will use a
stale value of nbd->flags, and the second server will issue an error every
time it receives an NBD_CMD_FLUSH command.
This bug is pre-existing, but it becomes much more important after this
patch; flush failures make the device pretty much unusable, unlike
