',' is a valid character in a device-tree path (see ePAPR v1.1 Table
2-1), in fact ',' is actually pretty common in node names.
Using ',' as a separator breaks for example on fast models. If you use
the full path (/smb/motherboard/iofpga@3,00000000/uart@090000) rather
than the alias then earlyprintk gives:
(XEN) Looking for UART console /smb/motherboard/iofpga@3
(XEN) Unable to find device "/smb/motherboard/iofpga@3"
(XEN) Bad console= option 'dtuart'
I actually noticed this on Jetson where the uart is
"/serial@0,70006300" and there happened to be no alias defined.
Instead use ':' as the separator, it is defined to terminate the path
in the context of /chosen/stdout-path (Table 3-4) which is pretty
closely analogous to the dtuart= option and so makes a pretty good
choice (especially since the next patch adds support for stdout-path).
Since no DT aware driver current supports any options there is no
point in retaining support for ',' for backwards compatibility.
Additionally, expand the buffer for the dtuart option, a path can be
far longer than 30 characters (in fact the maximum size of a single
node name is 31, so it's not even necessarily enough for an alias).
128 is completely arbitrary and allows for paths at least 8 deep even
with worst case node names.

The presence of the partition reference time enlightenment persuades newer
versions of Windows to prefer the TSC as their primary time source. Hence,
if rdtsc is not being emulated and is invariant then many vmexits (for
alternative time sources such as the HPET or reference counter MSR) can
be avoided.
The implementation is not yet complete as no attempt is made to prevent
emulation of rdtsc if the enlightenment is active and guest and host
TSC frequencies differ. To do that requires invasive changes in the core
x86 time code and hence a lot more testing.
This patch avoids the issue by disabling the enlightenment if rdtsc is
being emulated, causing Windows to choose another time source. This is
safe, but may cause a big variation in performance of guests migrated
between hosts of differing TSC frequency. Thus the enlightenment is not
enabled in the default set, but may be enabled to improve guest performance
where such migrations are not a concern.

Currently the quirk code for SandyBridge uses the VTd timeout value when
writing to an IGD register. This is the wrong timeout to use and, at
1000 msec., is also much too large. This patch changes the quirk code
to use a timeout that is specific to the IGD device and allows the user
control of the timeout.
Boolean settings for the boot parameter `snb_igd_quirk' keep their current
meaning, enabling or disabling the quirk code with a timeout of 1000 msec.
In addition specifying `snb_igd_quirk=default' will enable the code and
set the timeout to the theoretical maximum of 670 msec. For finer control,
specifying `snb_igd_quirk=n', where `n' is a decimal number, will enable
the code and set the timeout to `n' msec.

Workaround this issue by making the decriptions of the DPS options a nested

If you add enough PCI devices then all mmio may not fit below 4G
which may not be the layout the user wanted. This allows you to
increase the below 4G address space that PCI devices can use and
therefore in more cases not have any mmio that is above 4G.
There are real PCI cards that do not support mmio over 4G, so if you
want to emulate them precisely, you may also need to increase the
space below 4G for them. There are drivers for these cards that also
do not work if they have their mmio space mapped above 4G.
This allows growing the MMIO hole to the size needed.

This patch adds the machinery required for protecting a guest's
network device state. This patch comprises of two parts:
1. Hotplug scripts: The remus-netbuf-setup script is responsible for
setting up and tearing down the necessary infrastructure required for
network output buffering. This script should be invoked by libxl for
each of the guest's network interfaces, when starting or stopping Remus.
Apart from returning success/failure indication via the usual hotplug
entries in xenstore, this script also writes to xenstore, the name of
the REMUS_IFB device to be used to control the vif's network output.
The script relies on libnl3 command line utilities to perform various
setup/teardown functions. The script is confined to Linux platforms only
since NetBSD does not seem to have libnl3.
2. Remus network device: Implements the interfaces required by the
remus abstract device layer. A note about the implementation:
a) init_subkind_nic() & cleanup_subkind_nic() are called once per Remus
invocation. They establish and free netlink related state respectively.
b) setup() and teardown are called for each vif attached to the
guest.
During setup():
i) The hotplug script is called to setup a network buffer on a
given vif. The script chooses an available IFB device from
the system, redirects vif egress traffic to the IFB device
and sets up the plug qdisc (output buffer) on the IFB device.
The name of the IFB device is communicated via xenstore to
libxl.
ii) Libxl obtains a handle to the plug qdisc using the libnl3 API
and subsequently controls output buffering using this handle
in the checkpoint callbacks.
During teardown(), the hotplug scripts are called again to remove
the vif->ifb traffic redirection, release the ifb and the plug
qdisc associated with it.
c) The checkpoint callbacks [postsuspend(), preresume() and commit()]
are implemented as synchronous ops as the netlink calls associated
with the qdisc subsystem are very fast.
