Currently, a user can in principle combine the output of `xl info -n`, the
APCI tables, and some manual CPUID data to figure out which CPU numbers to
feed into `xen-hptool cpu-offline` to effectively disable SMT at runtime.
A more convenient option is to teach Xen how to perform this action.
Extend XEN_SYSCTL_cpu_hotplug with two new operations. Introduce a new
smt_up_down_helper() which wraps the cpu_{up,down}_helper() helpers with logic
which understands siblings based on their APIC_ID.
Add libxc stubs, and extend xen-hptool with smt-{enable,disable} options.
These are intended to be shorthands for a loop over cpu-{online,offline}.
To simplify the implemention, they will strictly enable/disable secondary
siblings (those with a non-zero thread id). This functionality is intended
for use in production scenarios where debugging options such as `maxcpus=` or
other manual plug/unplug configuration has not been used.

ISTM that it is best to do this by providing an interface to get the

is quite common elsewhere and has not caused problems.
libxc is not a stable API so the downside risk of providing this

libxl always uses xc_dom_gnttab_init(), which internally calls
xc_dom_gnttab{_hvm,}_seed() to set up the grants point at the console and
xenstore rings. For HVM guests, libxl then asks Xen for the information set
up previously, and calls xc_dom_gnttab_hvm_seed() a second time, which is
wasteful. ARM construction expects libxl to have set up
dom->{console,xenstore}_evtchn earlier, so only actually functions because of
this second call.
Rationalise everything and make it consistent for all guests.
1) Users of the domain builder are expected to provide
dom->{console,xenstore}_{evtchn,domid} unconditionally. This is checked
by setting invalid values in xc_dom_allocate(), and checking in
xc_dom_boot_image().
2) For x86 HVM and ARM guests, the event channels are given to Xen at the
same time as the ring gfns. ARM already did this, but x86 is updated to
match. x86 PV already provides this information in the start_info page.
3) Libxl is updated to drop all relevant functionality from
hvm_build_set_params(), and behave consistently with PV guests when it
comes to the handling of dom->{console,xenstore}_{evtchn,domid,gfn}.
This removes several redundant hypercalls (including a foreign mapping) from

This Patch allows a migration precopy policy to be specified.
The precopy phase of the xc_domain_save() live migration algorithm has
historically been implemented to run until either a) (almost) no pages
are dirty or b) some fixed, hard-coded maximum number of precopy
iterations has been exceeded. This policy and its implementation are
less than ideal for a few reasons:
- the logic of the policy is intertwined with the control flow of the
mechanism of the precopy stage
- it can't take into account facts external to the immediate
migration context, such external state transfer state, interactive
user input, or the passage of wall-clock time.
- it does not permit the user to change their mind, over time, about
what to do at the end of the precopy (they get an unconditional
transition into the stop-and-copy phase of the migration)
To permit callers to implement arbitrary higher-level policies governing
when the live migration precopy phase should end, and what should be
done next:
- add a precopy_policy() callback to the xc_domain_save() user-supplied
callbacks
- during the precopy phase of live migrations, consult this policy after
each batch of pages transmitted and take the dictated action, which
may be to a) abort the migration entirely, b) continue with the
precopy, or c) proceed to the stop-and-copy phase.

In some introspection usecases, an in-guest agent needs to communicate
with the external introspection agent. An existing mechanism is
HVMOP_guest_request_vm_event, but this is restricted to kernel usecases
like all other hypercalls.
Introduce a mechanism whereby the introspection agent can whitelist the
use of HVMOP_guest_request_vm_event directly from userspace.
