Introduce a new build variable "nosharedlibs".
In tools/libxc use it instead of $(stubdom).
In tools/xenstore honour it, and build static clients.
If shared libs are disabled, do not try to install or symlink them.
Set nosharedlibs when building for MiniOS or NetBSDRump.

v2: Clarify deliberate INSTALL_SHLIB and SYMLINK_SHLIB breakage.
INSTALL_SHLIB is like INSTALL_PROG but used only for shared libraries.
SYMLINK_SHLIB is the ln -sf rune for shared library symlinks.
Use these in the appropriate places in tools/libxc and tools/xenstore.
No functional change right now. In a forthcoming patch these
variables might take on different values.

The ifdef sections are not enabled at all in tree, and their justification is
out of date now that Xen hypercall support exists upstream in valgrind.
This also removes a commented-out tweak to CFLAGS in the libxc Makefile which
is not being used, and becomes stale given this patch. In the unlikely event
that any developers were using the line, the results can be more easily
achieved by tweaking APPEND_CFLAGS in the environment.

There have been ABI/API changes in libxc. Bump its MAJOR (which
affets libxenguest et al too.)
There have been ABI changes in libxl. Bump its MAJOR.
(The API changes have been dealt with as we go along - there is
already a LIBXL_API_VERSION 0x040400.)
None of the other libraries have changed their interfaces. I have
verified this by building the tools and searching the dist/install
tree for files matching *.so.*. For each library that showed up, I
did this:
git-diff RELEASE-4.3.0..staging -- `find tools/FOO/ -name \*.h`
where FOO is the corresponding source directory.

Signed integers have undesirable undefined behaviours on overflow.
Malicious compilers can turn apparently-correct code into code with
security vulnerabilities etc.
So use only unsigned integers. Exceptions are booleans (which we have
already changed) and error codes.
We _do_ change all the chars which aren't fixed constants from our own
text segment, but not the char*s. This is because it is safe to
access an arbitrary byte through a char*, but not necessarily safe to
convert an arbitrary value to a char.
As a consequence we need to compile libelf with -Wno-pointer-sign.
It is OK to change all the signed integers to unsigned because all the
inequalities in libelf are in contexts where we don't "expect"
negative numbers.
In libelf-dominfo.c:elf_xen_parse we rename a variable "rc" to
"more_notes" as it actually contains a note count derived from the
input image. The "error" return value from elf_xen_parse_notes is
changed from -1 to ~0U.
grepping shows only one occurrence of "PRId" or "%d" or "%ld" in
libelf and xc_dom_elfloader.c (a "%d" which becomes "%u").
This is part of the fix to a security issue, XSA-55.
For those concerned about unintentional functional changes, the
following rune produces a version of the patch which is much smaller
and eliminates only non-functional changes:
GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF=.../unsigned-differ git-diff <before>..<after>
where <before> and <after> are git refs for the code before and after
this patch, and unsigned-differ is this shell script:
#!/bin/bash
set -e
seddery () {
perl -pe 's/\b(?:elf_errorstatus|elf_negerrnoval)\b/int/g'
}
path="$1"
in="$2"
out="$5"
set +e
diff -pu --label "$path~" <(seddery <"$in") --label "$path" <(seddery <"$out")
rc=$?
set -e
if [ $rc = 1 ]; then rc=0; fi

(before xen installation folders).
PREPEND_INCLUDES: add headers to the search path before xen

APPEND_LIB: add libraries to the search path at the end
(after all xen installation folders have been added).
APPEND_INCLUDES: add libraries to the search path at the end
(after all xen installation folders have been added).

Up to now a single ring buffer was used for mem_share, xenpaging and
xen-access. Each helper would have to cooperate and pull only its own
requests from the ring. Unfortunately this was not implemented. And
even if it was, it would make the whole concept fragile because a crash
or early exit of one helper would stall the others.
What happend up to now is that active xenpaging + memory_sharing would
push memsharing requests in the buffer. xenpaging is not prepared for
such requests.
This patch creates an independet ring buffer for mem_share, xenpaging
and xen-access and adds also new functions to enable xenpaging and
xen-access. The xc_mem_event_enable/xc_mem_event_disable functions will
be removed. The various XEN_DOMCTL_MEM_EVENT_* macros were cleaned up.
Due to the removal the API changed, so the SONAME will be changed too.
