78316ada22 xen/pci: Remove 'xen_allocate_pirq_gsi'.
In the past (2.6.38) the 'xen_allocate_pirq_gsi' would allocate
an entry in a Linux IRQ -> {XEN_IRQ, type, event, ..} array. All
of that has been removed in 2.6.39 and the Xen IRQ subsystem uses
an linked list that is populated when the call to
'xen_allocate_irq_gsi' (universally done from any of the xen_bind_*
calls) is done. The 'xen_allocate_pirq_gsi' is a NOP and there is
no need for it anymore so lets remove it.

e6197acc72 xen/irq: Export 'xen_pirq_from_irq' function.
We need this to find the real Xen PIRQ value for a device
that requests an MSI or MSI-X. In the past we used
'xen_gsi_from_irq' since that function would return
an Xen PIRQ or GSI depending on the provided IRQ. Now that
we have seperated that we need to use the correct
function.

f4d0635bf8 xen: events: refactor GSI pirq bindings functions
Following the example set by xen_allocate_pirq_msi and
xen_bind_pirq_msi_to_irq:

xen_allocate_pirq becomes xen_allocate_pirq_gsi and now only allocates

xen_map_pirq_gsi becomes xen_bind_pirq_gsi_to_irq and binds an
existing pirq.

I was unable to find any user of these functions in either the

xen.git

An exception to this was xen_gsi_from_irq which did appear to be used
in xen/next-2.6.32's pciback. However in the 2.6.39 version of pciback
xen_pirq_from_irq is, correctly AFAICT, used instead.

Only a minority of functions in events.h use "extern" so drop it from

bf480d952b xen: events: separate MSI PIRQ allocation from PIRQ binding to IRQ
Split the binding aspect of xen_allocate_pirq_msi out into a new
xen_bind_pirq_to_irq function.

In xen_hvm_setup_msi_irq when allocating a pirq write the MSI message
to signal the PIRQ as soon as the pirq is obtained. There is no way to
free the pirq back so if the subsequent binding to an IRQ fails we
want to ensure that we will reuse the PIRQ next time rather than leak
it.

af42b8d12f xen: fix MSI setup and teardown for PV on HVM guests
When remapping MSIs into pirqs for PV on HVM guests, qemu is responsible
for doing the actual mapping and unmapping.
We only give qemu the desired pirq number when we ask to do the mapping
the first time, after that we should be reading back the pirq number
from qemu every time we want to re-enable the MSI.

This fixes a bug in xen_hvm_setup_msi_irqs that manifests itself when
trying to enable the same MSI for the second time: the old MSI to pirq
mapping is still valid at this point but xen_hvm_setup_msi_irqs would
try to assign a new pirq anyway.
A simple way to reproduce this bug is to assign an MSI capable network
card to a PV on HVM guest, if the user brings down the corresponding
ethernet interface and up again, Linux would fail to enable MSIs on the
device.

15ebbb82ba xen: fix shared irq device passthrough
In driver/xen/events.c, whether bind_pirq is shareable or not is
determined by desc->action is NULL or not. But in __setup_irq,
startup(irq) is invoked before desc->action is assigned with
new action. So desc->action in startup_irq is always NULL, and
bind_pirq is always not shareable. This results in pt_irq_create_bind
failure when passthrough a device which shares irq to other devices.

This patch doesn't use probing_irq to determine if pirq is shareable
or not, instead set shareable flag in irq_info according to trigger
mode in xen_allocate_pirq. Set level triggered interrupts shareable.
Thus use this flag to set bind_pirq flag accordingly.

d46a78b05c xen: implement pirq type event channels
A privileged PV Xen domain can get direct access to hardware.  In
order for this to be useful, it must be able to get hardware
interrupts.

Being a PV Xen domain, all interrupts are delivered as event channels.
PIRQ event channels are bound to a pirq number and an interrupt
vector.  When a IO APIC raises a hardware interrupt on that vector, it
is delivered as an event channel, which we can deliver to the
appropriate device driver(s).

This patch simply implements the infrastructure for dealing with pirq
event channels.

38e20b07ef x86/xen: event channels delivery on HVM.
Set the callback to receive evtchns from Xen, using the
callback vector delivery mechanism.

The traditional way for receiving event channel notifications from Xen
is via the interrupts from the platform PCI device.
The callback vector is a newer alternative that allow us to receive
notifications on any vcpu and doesn't need any PCI support: we allocate
a vector exclusively to receive events, in the vector handler we don't
need to interact with the vlapic, therefore we avoid a VMEXIT.

168d2f464a xen: save previous spinlock when blocking
A spinlock can be interrupted while spinning, so make sure we preserve
the previous lock of interest if we're taking a lock from within an
interrupt handler.

We also need to deal with the case where the blocking path gets
interrupted between testing to see if the lock is free and actually
blocking.  If we get interrupted there and end up in the state where
the lock is free but the irq isn't pending, then we'll block
indefinitely in the hypervisor.  This fix is to make sure that any
nested lock-takers will always leave the irq pending if there's any
chance the outer lock became free.

2d9e1e2f58 xen: implement Xen-specific spinlocks
The standard ticket spinlocks are very expensive in a virtual
environment, because their performance depends on Xen's scheduler
giving vcpus time in the order that they're supposed to take the
spinlock.

This implements a Xen-specific spinlock, which should be much more
efficient.

The fast-path is essentially the old Linux-x86 locks, using a single
lock byte.  The locker decrements the byte; if the result is 0, then
they have the lock.  If the lock is negative, then locker must spin
until the lock is positive again.

When there's contention, the locker spin for 2^16[*] iterations waiting
to get the lock.  If it fails to get the lock in that time, it adds
itself to the contention count in the lock and blocks on a per-cpu
event channel.

When unlocking the spinlock, the locker looks to see if there's anyone
blocked waiting for the lock by checking for a non-zero waiter count.
If there's a waiter, it traverses the per-cpu "lock_spinners"
variable, which contains which lock each CPU is waiting on.  It picks
one CPU waiting on the lock and sends it an event to wake it up.

This allows efficient fast-path spinlock operation, while allowing
spinning vcpus to give up their processor time while waiting for a
contended lock.

[*] 2^16 iterations is threshold at which 98% locks have been taken
according to Thomas Friebel's Xen Summit talk "Preventing Guests from
Spinning Around".  Therefore, we'd expect the lock and unlock slow
paths will only be entered 2% of the time.

0e91398f2a xen: implement save/restore
This patch implements Xen save/restore and migration.

Saving is triggered via xenbus, which is polled in
drivers/xen/manage.c.  When a suspend request comes in, the kernel
prepares itself for saving by:

1 - Freeze all processes.  This is primarily to prevent any
    partially-completed pagetable updates from confusing the suspend
    process.  If CONFIG_PREEMPT isn't defined, then this isn't necessary.

2 - Suspend xenbus and other devices

3 - Stop_machine, to make sure all the other vcpus are quiescent.  The
    Xen tools require the domain to run its save off vcpu0.

4 - Within the stop_machine state, it pins any unpinned pgds (under
    construction or destruction), performs canonicalizes various other
    pieces of state (mostly converting mfns to pfns), and finally

5 - Suspend the domain

Restore reverses the steps used to save the domain, ending when all
the frozen processes are thawed.

f87e4cac4f xen: SMP guest support
This is a fairly straightforward Xen implementation of smp_ops.

Xen has its own IPI mechanisms, and has no dependency on any
APIC-based IPI.  The smp_ops hooks and the flush_tlb_others pv_op
allow a Xen guest to avoid all APIC code in arch/i386 (the only apic
operation is a single apic_read for the apic version number).

One subtle point which needs to be addressed is unpinning pagetables
when another cpu may have a lazy tlb reference to the pagetable. Xen
will not allow an in-use pagetable to be unpinned, so we must find any
other cpus with a reference to the pagetable and get them to shoot
down their references.

e46cdb66c8 xen: event channels
Xen implements interrupts in terms of event channels.  Each guest
domain gets 1024 event channels which can be used for a variety of
purposes, such as Xen timer events, inter-domain events,
inter-processor events (IPI) or for real hardware IRQs.

Within the kernel, we map the event channels to IRQs, and implement
the whole interrupt handling using a Xen irq_chip.

Rather than setting NR_IRQ to 1024 under PARAVIRT in order to
accomodate Xen, we create a dynamic mapping between event channels and
IRQs.  Ideally, Linux will eventually move towards dynamically
allocating per-irq structures, and we can use a 1:1 mapping between
event channels and irqs.
