2011-10-31xen: Add export.h for THIS_MODULE/EXPORT_SYMBOL to various xen users.Paul Gortmaker
Things like THIS_MODULE and EXPORT_SYMBOL were simply everywhere because module.h was also everywhere. But we are fixing the latter. So we need to call out the real users in advance. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-09-29xen: use generic functions instead of xen_{alloc, free}_vm_area()David Vrabel
Replace calls to the Xen-specific xen_alloc_vm_area() and xen_free_vm_area() functions with the generic equivalent (alloc_vm_area() and free_vm_area()). On x86, these were identical already.

2010-08-07xenbus: Make xenbus_switch_state transactionalDaniel Stodden
According to the comments, this was how it's been done years ago, but apparently took an xbt pointer from elsewhere back then. The code was removed because of consistency issues: cancellation wont't roll back the saved xbdev->state. Still, unsolicited writes to the state field remain an issue, especially if device shutdown takes thread synchronization, and subtle races cause accidental recreation of the device node. Fixed by reintroducing the transaction. An internal one is sufficient, so the xbdev->state value remains consistent. Also fixes the original hack to prevent infinite recursion. Instead of bailing out on the first attempt to switch to Closing, checks call depth now.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2008-07-03xen: Avoid allocations causing swap activity on the resume pathIan Campbell
Avoid allocations causing swap activity on the resume path by preventing the allocations from doing IO and allowing them to access the emergency pools. These paths are used when a frontend device is trying to connect to its backend driver over Xenbus. These reconnections are triggered on demand by IO, so by definition there is already IO underway, and further IO would naturally deadlock. On resume, this path is triggered when the running system tries to continue using its devices. If it cannot then the resume will fail; to try to avoid this we let it dip into the emergency pools.

2008-04-24xen: replace callers of alloc_vm_area()/free_vm_area() with xen_ prefixed oneIsaku Yamahata
Don't use alloc_vm_area()/free_vm_area() directly, instead define xen_alloc_vm_area()/xen_free_vm_area() and use them. alloc_vm_area()/free_vm_area() are used to allocate/free area which are for grant table mapping. Xen/x86 grant table is based on virtual address so that alloc_vm_area()/free_vm_area() are suitable. On the other hand Xen/ia64 (and Xen/powerpc) grant table is based on pseudo physical address (guest physical address) so that allocation should be done differently. The original version of xenified Linux/IA64 have its own allocate_vm_area()/free_vm_area() definitions which don't allocate vm area contradictory to those names. Now vanilla Linux already has its definitions so that it's impossible to have IA64 definitions of allocate_vm_area()/free_vm_area(). Instead introduce xen_allocate_vm_area()/xen_free_vm_area() and use them.

2007-07-18xen: add the Xenbus sysfs and virtual device hotplug driverJeremy Fitzhardinge
This communicates with the machine control software via a registry residing in a controlling virtual machine. This allows dynamic creation, destruction and modification of virtual device configurations (network devices, block devices and CPUS, to name some examples).
