In current linux.git, gnttab_suspend() and gnttab_resume() are defined
and declared unconditionally. However, their only in-tree callers reside
in drivers/xen/manage.c, which are guarded by CONFIG_HIBERNATE_CALLBACKS.
Match the helper scope to their callers by wrapping the definitions in
CONFIG_HIBERNATE_CALLBACKS and providing no-op stubs in the header. This
fixes the config-scope mismatch and reduces the code footprint when
hibernation callbacks are disabled.

Instead of testing the XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap feature, just
use !xen_pv_domain() which is equivalent.
This has the advantage that a kernel not built with CONFIG_XEN_PV
will be smaller due to dead code elimination.

For support of virtio via grant mappings in rare cases larger mappings
using consecutive grants are needed. Support those by adding a bitmap
of free grants.
As consecutive grants will be needed only in very rare cases (e.g. when
configuring a virtio device with a multi-page ring), optimize for the
normal case of non-consecutive allocations.

Instead of a virtual kernel address use a pointer of the associated
struct page as second parameter of gnttab_end_foreign_access().
Most users have that pointer available already and are creating the
virtual address from it, risking problems in case the memory is
located in highmem.
gnttab_end_foreign_access() itself won't need to get the struct page
from the address again.

gnttab_end_foreign_access() is used to free a grant reference and
optionally to free the associated page. In case the grant is still in
use by the other side processing is being deferred. This leads to a
problem in case no page to be freed is specified by the caller: the
caller doesn't know that the page is still mapped by the other side
and thus should not be used for other purposes.
The correct way to handle this situation is to take an additional
reference to the granted page in case handling is being deferred and
to drop that reference when the grant reference could be freed
finally.
This requires that there are no users of gnttab_end_foreign_access()
left directly repurposing the granted page after the call, as this
might result in clobbered data or information leaks via the not yet
freed grant reference.
This is part of CVE-2022-23041 / XSA-396.

Its main use case is to either free a grant if it is no longer in use,

can be an error exit, or (e.g. in the case of blkfront persistent grant

V2:

It's not helpful if every driver has to cook its own. Generalize
xenbus'es INVALID_GRANT_HANDLE and pcifront's INVALID_GRANT_REF (which
shouldn't have expanded to zero to begin with). Use the constants in
p2m.c and gntdev.c right away, and update field types where necessary so
they would match with the constants' types (albeit without touching
struct ioctl_gntdev_grant_ref's ref field, as that's part of the public
interface of the kernel and would require introducing a dependency on
Xen's grant_table.h public header).

Failure of the kernel part of the mapping operation should also be
indicated as an error to the caller, or else it may assume the
respective kernel VA is okay to access.
Furthermore gnttab_map_refs() failing still requires recording
successfully mapped handles, so they can be unmapped subsequently. This
in turn requires there to be a way to tell full hypercall failure from
partial success - preset map_op status fields such that they won't
"happen" to look as if the operation succeeded.
Also again use GNTST_okay instead of implying its value (zero).

Extend grant table module API to allow allocating buffers that can
be used for DMA operations and mapping foreign grant references
on top of those.
The resulting buffer is similar to the one allocated by the balloon
driver in that proper memory reservation is made by
({increase|decrease}_reservation and VA mappings are updated if
needed).
This is useful for sharing foreign buffers with HW drivers which
cannot work with scattered buffers provided by the balloon driver,
but require DMAable memory instead.

The grant v2 support was removed from the kernel with
commit 438b33c714 ("xen/grant-table:
remove support for V2 tables") as the higher memory footprint of v2
grants resulted in less grants being possible for a kernel compared
to the v1 grant interface.
As machines with more than 16TB of memory are expected to be more
common in the near future support of grant v2 is mandatory in order
to be able to run a Xen pv domain at any memory location.
So re-add grant v2 support basically by reverting above commit.

have a number of grants in hand.

Many PV drivers contain the idiom:

gnttab_grant_foreign_access_ref
Replace it by a new helper. Note that when Linux is using a different
page granularity than Xen, the helper only gives access to the first 4KB
grant.
This is useful where drivers are allocating a full Linux page for each
grant.
Also include xen/interface/grant_table.h rather than xen/grant_table.h in
asm/page.h for x86 to fix a compilation issue [1]. Only the former is
useful in order to get the structure definition.

Currently, a grant is always based on the Xen page granularity (i.e
4KB). When Linux is using a different page granularity, a single page
will be split between multiple grants.
The new helpers will be in charge of splitting the Linux page into grants
and call a function given by the caller on each grant.
Also provide an helper to count the number of grants within a given
contiguous region.
Note that the x86/include/asm/xen/page.h is now including
xen/interface/grant_table.h rather than xen/grant_table.h. It's
necessary because xen/grant_table.h depends on asm/xen/page.h and will
break the compilation. Furthermore, only definition in
interface/grant_table.h is required.

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.
