When dom0 is PVH, and passthrough a device to dumU, xl will
use the gsi number of device to do a pirq mapping, see
pci_add_dm_done->xc_physdev_map_pirq, but the gsi number is
got from file /sys/bus/pci/devices/<sbdf>/irq, that confuses
irq and gsi, they are in different space and are not equal,
so it will fail when mapping.
To solve this issue, to get the real gsi and add a new function
xc_physdev_map_pirq_gsi to get a free pirq for gsi.
Note: why not use current function xc_physdev_map_pirq, because
it doesn't support to allocate a free pirq, what's more, to
prevent changing it and affecting its callers, so add
xc_physdev_map_pirq_gsi.
Besides, PVH dom0 doesn't have PIRQs flag, it doesn't do
PHYSDEVOP_map_pirq for each gsi. So grant function callstack
pci_add_dm_done->XEN_DOMCTL_irq_permission will fail at function
domain_pirq_to_irq. And old hypercall XEN_DOMCTL_irq_permission
requires passing in pirq, it is not suitable for PVH dom0 that
doesn't have PIRQs to grant irq permission.
To solve this issue, use the another hypercall
XEN_DOMCTL_gsi_permission to grant the permission of irq(
translate from gsi) to dumU when dom0 has no PIRQs.

To change the cd-rom medium, libxl will:

- block-detach the old PV disk
- block-attach the new PV disk
- QMP change the medium to the new PV disk by fdset-id
The QMP code is reused, and remove and attach are implemented here.
The stubdom must internally handle adding /dev/xvdc to the appropriate
fdset. libxl in dom0 doesn't see the result of adding to the fdset as
that is internal to the stubdom, but the fdset's opaque fields will be
set to stub-devid:$devid, so libxl can identify it. $devid is common
between the stubdom and libxl, so it can be identified on both side.
The stubdom will name the device xvdY regardless of the guest name hdY,
sdY, or xvdY, but the stubdom will be assigned the same devid
facilitating lookup. Because the stubdom add-fd call is asynchronous,
libxl needs to poll query-fdsets to identify when add-fd has completed.
For cd-eject, we still need to attach the empty vbd. This is necessary
since xenstore is used to determine that hdc exists. Otherwise after
eject, hdc would be gone and the cd-insert would fail to find the drive

An empty cdrom drive causes problems booting the stubdom. The PV disk
protocol isn't designed to support no media. That can be partially
hacked around, but the stubdom kernel waits for all block devices to
transition to Connected. Since the backend never connects empty media,
stubdom launch times out and it is destroyed.
Empty media and the PV disks not connecting is fine at runtime since the
stubdom keeps running irrespective of the disk state.
Empty media can be worked around my providing an empty file to the
stubdom for the PV disk source. This works as the disk is exposed as a
zero-size disk. Dynamically create the empty file as needed and remove
in the stubdom cleanup.
libxl__device_disk_set_backend() needs to allow through these "empty"

This patch re-introduces blktap support to libxl. Unlike earlier
versions, it does not link against any blktap library. libxl changes
are needed to write to the vbd3 backend XenStore nodes.
blktap has three components. tapdisk is a daemon implementing the disk
IO, NBD (Network Block Device), and Xen PV interfaces. tap-ctl is a
tool to control tapdisks - creating, starting, stopping and freeing.
tapback manages the XenStore operations and instructs tapdisk to
connect.
It is notable that tapdisk performs the grant and event channel ops, but
doesn't interact with XenStore. tapback performs XenStore operations
and notifies tapdisks of values and changes.
The flow is: libxl writes to the "vbd3" XenStore nodes and runs the
block-tap script. The block-tap script runs tap-ctl to create a tapdisk
instance as the physical device. tapback then sees the tapdisk and
instructs the tapdisk to connect up the PV blkif interface.
This is expected to work without the kernel blktap driver, so the
block-tap script is modified accordingly to write the UNIX NBD path.
backendtype=tap was not fully removed previously, but it would never
succeed since it would hit the hardcoded error in disk_try_backend().
It is reused now.

xl block-attach vm 'vdev=xvdf,backendtype=tap,format=vhd,target=/srv/target.vhd'

The HVM pirq feature allows routing interrupts from both physical and emulated
devices over event channels, this was done a performance improvement. However
its usage is fully undocumented, and the only reference implementation is in
Linux. It defeats the purpose of local APIC hardware virtualization, because
when using it interrupts avoid the usage of the local APIC altogether.
It has also been reported to not work properly with certain devices, at least
when using some AMD GPUs Linux attempts to route interrupts over event
channels, but Xen doesn't correctly detect such routing, which leads to the
hypervisor complaining with:
(XEN) d15v0: Unsupported MSI delivery mode 7 for Dom15
When MSIs are attempted to be routed over event channels the entry delivery
mode is set to ExtINT, but Xen doesn't detect such routing and attempts to
inject the interrupt following the native MSI path, and the ExtINT delivery
mode is not supported.
Disable HVM PIRQs by default and provide a per-domain option in xl.cfg to
enable such feature. Also for backwards compatibility keep the feature enabled
for any resumed domains that don't have an explicit selection.
Note that the only user of the feature (Linux) is also able to handle native
interrupts fine, as the feature was already not used if Xen reported local APIC

Right now, all tools and hypervisor will be complied with the option
-Wdeclaration-after-statement. While most of the code in the hypervisor
is controlled by us, for tools we may import external libraries.
The build will fail if one of them are using the construct we are
trying to prevent. This is the case when building against Python 3.12
and Yocto:

Looking at the tools directory, a fair few directory already add
-Wno-declaration-after-statement to inhibit the default behavior.
We have always build the hypervisor with the flag, so for now remove
only the flag for anything but the hypervisor. We can decide at later
time whether we want to relax.
Also remove the -Wno-declaration-after-statement in some subdirectory
as the flag is now unnecessary.

Much like the device model depriv mode, add the same kind of support for the
bootloader. Such feature allows passing a UID as a parameter for the
bootloader to run as, together with the bootloader itself taking the necessary
actions to isolate.
Note that the user to run the bootloader as must have the right permissions to
access the guest disk image (in read mode only), and that the bootloader will
be run in non-interactive mode when restricted.
If enabled bootloader restrict mode will attempt to re-use the user(s) from the
QEMU depriv implementation if no user is provided on the configuration file or
the environment. See docs/features/qemu-deprivilege.pandoc for more
information about how to setup those users.
Bootloader restrict mode is not enabled by default as it requires certain
setup to be done first (setup of the user(s) to use in restrict mode).

Currently, libxl will grant IOMEM, I/O port and IRQ permissions when
a PCI is attached (see pci_add_dm_done()) for all domain types. However,
the permissions are only revoked for non-HVM domain (see do_pci_remove()).
This means that HVM domains will be left with extra permissions. While
this look bad on the paper, the IRQ permissions should be revoked
when the Device Model call xc_physdev_unmap_pirq() and such domain
cannot directly mapped I/O port and IOMEM regions. Instead, this has to
be done by a Device Model.
The Device Model can only run in dom0 or PV stubdomain (upstream libxl
doesn't have support for HVM/PVH stubdomain).
For PV/PVH stubdomain, the permission are properly revoked, so there is
no security concern.
This leaves dom0. There are two cases:
1) Privileged: Anyone gaining access to the Device Model would already
have large control on the host.
2) Deprivileged: PCI passthrough require PHYSDEV operations which
are not accessible when the Device Model is restricted.
So overall, it is believed that the extra permissions cannot be exploited.
Rework the code so the permissions are all removed for HVM domains.
This needs to happen after the QEMU has detached the device. So
the revocation is now moved to pci_remove_detached().
Also add a comment on top of the error message when the PIRQ cannot
be unbind to explain this could be a spurious error as QEMU may have
already done it.

The function do_pci_remove() has two local variables 'domid' and
'domainid' containing the same value.
Looking at the history, until 2cf3b50dcd ("libxl_pci: Use
libxl__ao_device with pci_remove") the two variables may have
different value when using a stubdomain.
As this is not the case now, remove 'domainid'. This will reduce
the confusion between the two variables.
Note that there are other places in libxl_pci.c which are using
the two confusing names within the same function. They are left
unchanged for now.
No functional changes intented.
