Edwin Török a91d1616d8 libs/call: cache up to 4 pages in hypercall bounce buffers
During migration there are a lot of mmap/munmap calls,
because xc_get_pfn_type_batch() exceeds the default hypercall bounce
buffer cache size, and needs to allocate every time it is called.

munmap() is slow, especially in a PV Dom0 (takes an emulation fault),
so is best avoided.

Eventually it'd be good if the memory pool from  xmalloc_tlsf.c
was reused here, but for now make it handle the commonly encountered
sizes (so far up to 4 pages).

Frediano Ziglio fdeba9d55f libs/guest: Drop guest_data in write_batch() and fill iov directly
There is no need to store the page pointers simply to transcribe the same
information into iov later.  Drop the guest_data intermediate array.

These days, linux has a maximum limit of 1024 iovs.  Libc under the hood will
subdivide the submission if necessary, which is why our general case of 1026
submissions works.

xenforeignmemory_map() maps the requested guest memory contiguously, and
except for PV pagetable frames, we submit contiguously into the stream.  When
safe to do, merge adjacent vectors by extending iov_len, reducing the
likelihood that libc needs to subdivide the submission.

Mykola Kvach 0656627b89 xen/arm: split DTB/initrd placement helpers
The Arm zImage loader currently computes the kernel load address and
places the DTB/initrd in one local flow.  The hardware-domain memory
allocator needs to reuse those placement rules before it chooses bank 0,
but open-coding the same calculations there would make the fix harder to
audit.

Split the existing logic into small helpers:
- kernel_zimage_place_in_bank() computes the zImage load address for a
  given bank.
- first_bank_can_fit_modules() checks the aggregate first-bank
  footprint.
- find_dtb_initrd_placement() chooses the DTB/initrd location within a
  known bank and kernel range.

Rename place_modules() to place_dtb_initrd() so the code distinguishes
the kernel image from the DTB/initrd placement area.  Also update the
comments linking the hypervisor and toolstack placement paths.

While moving the code, spell the 2MB alignment mask with MB(2) rather
than open-coding (2 << 20).  This is mechanical and keeps the generated
value unchanged.

The caller still panics in the same cases as before, so this is intended
to be behavior preserving.

This hypercall is an addition of mine from commit 67528a3f06 ("x86/cpu:
Sysctl and common infrastructure for levelling context switching", 2016), but
it never got wired into any toolstacks.  In the meantime, how we handle CPUID
for guests has evolved substantially.

In order to reuse the AMD levelling infrasturcture for boot time quirks,
levelling_caps is going to have to change.  While it's probably safe to expose
this difference, it's safer still to make it an internal detail.

Roger Pau Monne 98cdab1679 tools/{lib,}xl: fix usage of error return from json_tokener_parse_verbose()
It's possible for json_tokener_parse_verbose() to return NULL and leave the
error parameter unset.  Initialize the error variable at definition to an
existing error token to make sure it's not uninitialized in case of
failure.

Reported by XenServer internal Coverity instance.

Anthony PERARD f6c6f2679d libxl: Convert libxl__object_to_json() to json-c
- libxl changes:

While doing so, we rename all "*_gen_json" function to "*_gen_jso" as
they have different prototype. All the function pointer are been cast
to (libxl__gen_json_callback) by "gentypes.py" when generating
"*_to_json()" functions.

We also introduce a few more "*_gen_jso" functions for "int" and
"bool" because we can't use json_object_*() functions from json-c
directly like it's done with yajl.

To make the generation of _libxl_types*json.[ch] with both YAJL and
json-c we add "--libjsonc" to gentypes.py so it can generate
functions/types for both.

Also introducing "jsonc_json_gen_fn" in the IDL, to be able to point
to a different function when using json-c.

Also, don't export any of the new *_gen_jso() function, at the cost of
having "_hidden" macro in semi-public headers.

- xl changes:

Also, rework the implementation of printf_info() in `xl` to avoid
using libxl_domain_config_gen_json() which isn't available without
YAJL. The implementation using "json_object" call
libxl_domain_config_to_json() which generate a plain string of JSON,
which we parse to add it to our own json; this avoid a dependency on
the json library used by libxl.

Anthony PERARD 7e95dab9eb libxl: Convert libxl__json_parse() to use json-c
This reuse the "json_callback_*" implemented for the yajl parser as
they don't really need to be changed. It's just awkward to have to
cast between `unsigned char` and `char.`

Replace few strncpy() by memcpy() to let the compiler know we want to
copy the string without the terminating nul, as we are adding it just
after.

Also, it should be possible to keep using YAJL parser when json-c
library isn't available.

To replace yajl.

Introduce XEN_JSON_LIBS variable, to be able to remove "-lyajl" later.

As a first step, the variable will have both or only -lyajl. Then
commit "configure: Use json-c by default, fallback to yajl" will make
a change to only have one or the other once the code is ready to build
with only json-c.

Juergen Gross fd67ca4e58 libs/guest: don't use unsigned long as type for PFNs
Declarations of xc_dom_console_init() and
xc_dom_console_set_disconnected() in libxenguest.h don't match their
implementation in the library.

Under arm32, xen_pfn_t is a uint64_t and wider than unsigned long.

Use xen_pfn_t for GFNs in the library to fix that. At the same time
change the parameter name of the implementation to console_gfn,
matching the interface declaration in the header and reality (it is
a GFN, not a PFN).

Frediano Ziglio 50baf2d9f7 tools/libs/guest: Use superpages where possible on migrate/resume
Right now on migrate/resume, all guest memory is allocated with 4k
small pages.  This was an intended oversight in the original Migration
v2 implementation.

With some test memory program stressing TLB (many small random memory
accesses) superpages can show a 15% performance improvement.

On the first memory iteration the sender is currently sending memory
in 4MB aligned chunks of GFN space which allows the receiver to
allocate most pages as 2MB superpages instead of single 4KB pages.

This change does not handle 1GB superpages as this will require
changes to the migration protocol.

Penny Zheng e3305043b2 tools/cpufreq: extract CPPC para from cpufreq para
We extract cppc info from "struct xen_get_cpufreq_para", where it acts as
a member of union, and share the space with governor info.
However, it may fail in amd-cppc passive mode, in which governor info and
CPPC info could co-exist, and both need to be printed together via xenpm tool.
If we tried to still put it in "struct xen_get_cpufreq_para" (e.g. just move
out of union), "struct xen_get_cpufreq_para" will enlarge too much to further
make xen_sysctl.u exceed 128 bytes.

So we introduce a new sub-field GET_CPUFREQ_CPPC to dedicatedly acquire
CPPC-related para, and make get-cpufreq-para invoke GET_CPUFREQ_CPPC
if available.
New helpers print_cppc_para() and get_cpufreq_cppc() are introduced to
extract CPPC-related parameters process from cpufreq para.
