CMPXCHG sets CF, PF, AF, SF, and OF flags according to the results of the

rAX must be the first argument of the comparison (a minuend), the operand
must be the second one (a subtrahend).
Due to improper order of comparison arguments, CF, PF, AF, SF and OF flags were
set incorrectly in the case of inequality. Need to swap them.

Some EFI firmware implementations may place the SMBIOS table in RAM
marked as BootServicesData, which Xen does not consider as reserved.
When dom0 tries to access the SMBIOS, the region is not contained in the
initial P2M and it crashes with a page fault. To fix this, reserve the
SMBIOS region.
Also, fix the memcmp checks for existence of the SMBIOS.

Said hypercall for large BARs can take quite a while. As such
we can require that the hypercall MUST break up the request
in smaller values.
Another approach is to add preemption to it - whether we do the
preemption using hypercall_create_continuation or returning
EAGAIN to userspace (and have it re-invocate the call) - either
way the issue we cannot easily solve is that in 'map_mmio_regions'
if we encounter an error we MUST call 'unmap_mmio_regions' for the
whole BAR region.
Since the preemption would re-use input fields such as nr_mfns,
first_gfn, first_mfn - we would lose the original values -
and only undo what was done in the current round (i.e. ignoring
anything that was done prior to earlier preemptions).
Unless we re-used the return value as 'EAGAIN|nr_mfns_done<<10' but
that puts a limit (since the return value is a long) on the amount
of nr_mfns that can provided.
This patch sidesteps this problem by:
- Setting an hard limit of nr_mfns having to be 64 or less.
- Toolstack adjusts correspondingly to the nr_mfn limit.
- If the there is an error when adding the toolstack will call the
remove operation to remove the whole region.
The need to break this hypercall down is for large BARs can take
more than the guest (initial domain usually) time-slice. This has
the negative result in that the guest is locked out for a long
duration and is unable to act on any pending events.
We also augment the code to return zero if nr_mfns instead
of trying to the hypercall.
This is XSA-125 / CVE-2015-2752.

Copy the entire output buffer to the guest because some firmwares update
size on successful calls (contrary to the spec) and the buffer may
contain data beyond the output size that the firmware requires on a
subsequent GetNextVariableName() call (e.g. a NULL character).
Note that this shouldn't change the amount of data copied because on success, a
compliant firmware does not change size and so the entire buffer is copied
anyway. If size is changed, Xen does not copy the buffer.
Without this change, the following (simplified) sequence would occur:
GetNextVariableName: in \0, size 1024 || out AdminPw\0, size 7
GetNextVariableName: in AdminPw\0, size 1024 || out UserPw\0, size 6

By default qemu will try to create some sort of backend for the
emulated VGA device, either SDL or VNC.
However when the user specifies sdl=0 and vnc=0 in their configuration
libxl was not explicitly disabling either backend, which could lead to
one unexpectedly running.
If either sdl=1 or vnc=1 is configured then both before and after this
change only the backends which are explicitly enabled are configured,
i.e. this issue only occurs when all backends are supposed to have
been disabled.
This affects qemu-xen and qemu-xen-traditional differently.
If qemu-xen was compiled with SDL support then this would result in an
SDL window being opened if $DISPLAY is valid, or a failure to start
the guest if not. Passing "-display none" to qemu before any further
-sdl options disables this default behaviour and ensures that SDL is
only started if the libxl configuration demands it.
If qemu-xen was compiled without SDL support then qemu would instead
start a VNC server listening on ::1 (IPv6 localhost) or 127.0.0.1
(IPv4 localhost) with IPv6 preferred if available. Explicitly pass
"-vnc none" when vnc is not enabled in the libxl configuration to
remove this possibility.
qemu-xen-traditional would never start a vnc backend unless asked.
However by default it will start an SDL backend, the way to disable
this is to pass a -vnc option. In other words passing "-vnc none" will
disable both vnc and sdl by default. sdl can then be reenabled if
configured by subsequent use of the -sdl option.
Tested with both qemu-xen and qemu-xen-traditional built with SDL
support and:
xl cr # defaults
xl cr sdl=0 vnc=0
xl cr sdl=1 vnc=0
xl cr sdl=0 vnc=1
xl cr sdl=0 vnc=0 vga=\"none\"
xl cr sdl=0 vnc=0 nographic=1
with both valid and invalid $DISPLAY.

c/s d1b93ea causes substantial functional regressions in pygrub's ability to
parse bootloader configuration files.
c/s d1b93ea itself changed an an interface which previously used exclusively
integers, to using strings in the case of a grub configuration with explicit
default set, along with changing the code calling the interface to require a
string. The default value for "default" remained as an integer.
As a result, any Extlinux or Lilo configuration (which drives this interface
exclusively with integers), or Grub configuration which doesn't explicitly
declare a default will die with an AttributeError when attempting to call
"self.cf.default.isdigit()" where "default" is an integer.
Sadly, this AttributeError gets swallowed by the blanket ignore in the loop
which searches partitions for valid bootloader configurations, causing the
issue to be reported as "Unable to find partition containing kernel"
We should explicitly check type of "default" in image_index() and process it
appropriately.

We need to make sure that last_vcpu is not pointing to VCPU whose
VPMU is being destroyed. Otherwise we may try to dereference it in
the future, when VCPU is gone.
We have to do this via IPI since otherwise there is a (somewheat
theoretical) chance that between test and subsequent clearing
of last_vcpu the remote processor (i.e. vpmu->last_pcpu) might do
both vpmu_load() and then vpmu_save() for another VCPU. The former
will clear last_vcpu and the latter will set it to something else.
Performing this operation via IPI will guarantee that nothing can
happen on the remote processor between testing and clearing of
last_vcpu.
We should also check for VPMU_CONTEXT_ALLOCATED in vpmu_destroy() to
avoid unnecessary percpu tests and arch-specific destroy ops. Thus
checks in AMD and Intel routines are no longer needed.

This can (and will) be legitimately the case when sharing page tables
with EPT (more of a problem before p2m_access_rwx became zero, but
still possible even now when other than that is the default for a
guest), leading to an unconditional crash (in print_vtd_entries())
when a DMA remapping fault occurs.

Commit 545607eb3c ("x86: fix various issues with handling guest IRQs")
wasn't really consistent in one respect: The granting of access to an
IRQ shouldn't assume the pIRQ->IRQ translation to be the same in both
domains. In fact it is wrong to assume that a translation is already/
still in place at the time access is being granted/revoked.
What is wanted is to translate the incoming pIRQ to an IRQ for
the invoking domain (as the pIRQ is the only notion the invoking
domain has of the IRQ), and grant the subject domain access to
the resulting IRQ.

printk is not rated-limited by default. Therefore a malicious guest may
be able to flood the Xen console.
If we use gdprintk, unecessary information will be printed such as the
filename and the line. Instead use XENLOG_G_ERR combine with %pv.
This is XSA-118.

[ relates to d0b2caa80f in master ]
',' 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.
