2013-03-22xen-pciback: notify hypervisor about devices intended to be assigned to guestsJan Beulich
For MSI-X capable devices the hypervisor wants to write protect the MSI-X table and PBA, yet it can't assume that resources have been assigned to their final values at device enumeration time. Thus have pciback do that notification, as having the device controlled by it is a prerequisite to assigning the device to guests anyway. This is the kernel part of hypervisor side commit 4245d33 ("x86/MSI: add mechanism to fully protect MSI-X table from PV guest accesses") on the master branch of git://xenbits.xen.org/xen.git.

2012-11-04xen/hypercall: fix hypercall fallback code for very old hypervisorsJan Beulich
While copying the argument structures in HYPERVISOR_event_channel_op() and HYPERVISOR_physdev_op() into the local variable is sufficiently safe even if the actual structure is smaller than the container one, copying back eventual output values the same way isn't: This may collide with on-stack variables (particularly "rc") which may change between the first and second memcpy() (i.e. the second memcpy() could discard that change). Move the fallback code into out-of-line functions, and handle all of the operations known by this old a hypervisor individually: Some don't require copying back anything at all, and for the rest use the individual argument structures' sizes rather than the container's.

2012-07-19xen/mce: Add mcelog support for Xen platformLiu, Jinsong
When MCA error occurs, it would be handled by Xen hypervisor first, and then the error information would be sent to initial domain for logging. This patch gets error information from Xen hypervisor and convert Xen format error into Linux format mcelog. This logic is basically self-contained, not touching other kernel components. By using tools like mcelog tool users could read specific error information, like what they did under native Linux.

2011-05-26xen: cleancache shim to Xen Transcendent MemoryDan Magenheimer
This patch provides a shim between the kernel-internal cleancache API (see Documentation/mm/cleancache.txt) and the Xen Transcendent Memory ABI (see http://oss.oracle.com/projects/tmem). Xen tmem provides "hypervisor RAM" as an ephemeral page-oriented pseudo-RAM store for cleancache pages, shared cleancache pages, and frontswap pages. Tmem provides enterprise-quality concurrency, full save/restore and live migration support, compression and deduplication. A presentation showing up to 8% faster performance and up to 52% reduction in sectors read on a kernel compile workload, despite aggressive in-kernel page reclamation ("self-ballooning") can be found at: http://oss.oracle.com/projects/tmem/dist/documentation/presentations/TranscendentMemoryXenSummit2010.pdf Signed-off-by: Dan Magenheimer <dan.magenheimer@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> Cc: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk> Cc: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Cc: Rik Van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Jan Beulich <JBeulich@novell.com> Cc: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com> Cc: Andreas Dilger <adilger@sun.com> Cc: Ted Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com> Cc: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com> Cc: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
