ARM does not implemented PoD and so returns ENOSYS from XENMEM_set_pod_target.
The correct solution here would be to check for ENOSYS in libxl, unfortunately
xc_domain_set_pod_target suffers from the same broken error reporting as the
rest of libxc and throws away the errno.
So for now conditionally define xc_domain_set_pod_target to return success
(which is what PoD does if nothing needs doing). xc_domain_get_pod_target sets
errno==-1 and returns -1, which matches the broken error reporting of the
existing function. It appears to have no in tree callers in any case.
The conditional should be removed once libxc has been fixed.
This makes ballooning (xl mem-set) work for ARM domains.

The original code is wrong because:
* claim mode wants to know the total number of pages needed while
original code provides the additional number of pages needed.
* if pod is enabled memory will already be allocated by the time we try
to claim memory.
So the fix would be:
* move claim mode before actual memory allocation.
* pass the right number of pages to hypervisor.
The "right number of pages" should be number of pages of target memory
minus VGA_HOLE_SIZE, regardless of whether PoD is enabled.
This fixes bug #32.

libxl_event.c:eventloop_iteration would pass the allocated pollfds
array size, rather than the used size, to poll (and to
afterpoll_internal).
The effect is that if the number of fds to poll on reduces, libxl will
poll on stale entries. Because of the way the return value from poll
is processed these stale entries are often harmless because any events
coming back from poll ignored by libxl. However, it could cause
malfunctions:
It could result in unwanted SIGTTIN/SIGTTOU/SIGPIPE, for example, if
the fd has been reused to refer to an object which can generate those
signals. Alternatively, it could result in libxl spinning if the
stale entry refers to an fd which happens now to be ready for the
previously-requested operation.
I have tested this with a localhost migration and inspected the strace
output.

As Ian Campbell writes in http://bugs.xenproject.org/xen/bug/30:
There are two mechanisms by which a suspend can be aborted and the
original domain resumed.
The older method is that the toolstack resets a bunch of state (see
tools/python/xen/xend/XendDomainInfo.py resumeDomain) and then
restarts the domain. The domain will see HYPERVISOR_suspend return 0
and will continue without any realisation that it is actually
running in the original domain and not in a new one. This method is
supposed to be implemented by libxl_domain_resume(suspend_cancel=0)
but it is not.
The other method is newer and in this case the toolstack arranges
that HYPERVISOR_suspend returns SUSPEND_CANCEL and restarts it. The
domain will observe this and realise that it has been restarted in
the same domain and will behave accordingly. This method is
implemented, correctly AFAIK, by
libxl_domain_resume(suspend_cancel=1).
Attempting to use the old method without doing all of the work simply
causes the guest to crash. Implementing the work required for old
method, or for checking that domains actually support the new method,
is not feasible at this stage of the 4.4 release.
So, always use the new method, without regard to the declarations of
support by the guest. This is a strict improvement: guests which do
in fact support the new method will work, whereas ones which don't are
no worse off.
There are two call sites of libxl_domain_resume that need fixing, both
in the migration error path.
With this change I observe a correct and successful resumption of a
Debian wheezy guest with a Linux 3.4.70 kernel after a migration
attempt which I arranged to fail by nobbling the block hotplug script.

This change is restricted to HVM guest, as only HVM is relevant in the

This will change initiate_domain_create to walk through NIC definitions
and automatically assign devids to those which have not assigned one.
The devids are needed later in domcreate_launch_dm (for HVM domains
using emulated NICs). The command string for starting the device-model
has those ids as part of its arguments.
Assignment of devids in the hotplug case is handled by libxl_device_nic_add
but that would be called too late in the startup case.
I also moved the call to libxl__device_nic_setdefault here as this seems
to be the only path leading there and avoids doing the loop a third time.
The two loops are trying to handle a case where the caller sets some devids
(not sure that should be valid) but leaves some unset.

This should help to reduce a CPU hotplug race window where a cpu hotplug
event while not be seen by the OS.
When hotplugging more than one vcpu, some of those vcpus might not be
seen as plugged by the guest.
This is what is currently happenning:
1. hw adds cpu, sets GPE.2 bit and sends SCI
2. OSPM gets SCI, reads GPE00.sts and masks GPE.2 bit in GPE00.en
3. OSPM executes _L02 (level-triggered event associate to cpu hotplug)
4. hw adds second cpu and sets GPE.2 bit but SCI is not asserted
since GPE00.en masks event
5. OSPM resets GPE.2 bit in GPE00.sts and umasks it in GPE00.en
as result event for step 4 is lost because step 5 clears it and OS
will not see added second cpu.
ACPI 50 spec: 5.6.4 General-Purpose Event Handling
defines GPE event handling as following:
1. Disables the interrupt source (GPEx_BLK EN bit).
2. If an edge event, clears the status bit.
3. Performs one of the following:
* Dispatches to an ACPI-aware device driver.
* Queues the matching control method for execution.
* Manages a wake event using device _PRW objects.
4. If a level event, clears the status bit.
5. Enables the interrupt source.
So, by using edge-triggered General-Purpose Event instead of a
level-triggered GPE, OSPM is less likely to clear the status bit of the
addition of the second CPU. On step 5, QEMU will resend an interrupt if
the status bit is set.
This description apply also for PCI hotplug since the same step are
followed by QEMU, so we also change the GPE event type for PCI hotplug.
This does not apply to qemu-xen-traditional because it does not resend
an interrupt if necessary as a result of step 5.
Patch and description inspired by SeaBIOS's commit:
Replace level gpe event with edge gpe event for hot-plug handlers

On ARM guest OSes are started with MMU and Caches disables (as they are on
native) however caching is enabled in the domain running the builder and
therefore we must flush the cache as we load the blobs, otherwise when the
guest starts running it may not see them. The dom0 build in the hypervisor has
the same requirements and already does the right thing.
The mechanism for performing a cache flush from userspace is OS specific, so
implement this as a new osdep hook:
- On 32-bit ARM Linux provides a system call to flush the cache.
- On 64-bit ARM Linux the processor is configured to allow cache flushes
directly from userspace.
- Non-Linux platforms will need to provide their own implementation. If
similar mechanisms are not available then a new privcmd ioctl should be a
suitable alternative.
No cache maintenance is required on x86, so provide a stub for all non-Linux
platforms which returns success on x86 only and log an error otherwise.
This fixes guest building on Xgene which has a very large L3 cache and so is
particularly susceptible to this problem. It has also been observed
sporadically on midway.

Currently we check the pty path received from xenstore with access(); if
it indicates that the pty is not accessible, we loop around and wait for
a new path to appear in xenstore.
This has several issues:
* If a path has been written to xenstore, it can be assumed that that
pty should already be accessible to xenconsole, and hence any error
that occurs while trying to open it should be fatal and not ignored
* If access() indicates no access to the pty, the memory allocated for
the path is leaked when going around the loop again
* The accessibility of the pty could change between the access() and
open() calls, leading to a TOCTOU race (this is what Coverity is
complaining about).
By removing the explicit access() check and just erroring out whenever
open() fails, we fix all these issues.

Ocaml has a heap lock which must be held whenever ocaml code is running. Ocaml
usually drops this lock when it enters a potentially blocking low-level
function, such as writing to a file. Libxl has its own lock, which it may
acquire when being called.
Things get interesting when libxl calls back into ocaml code. There is a risk
of ending up in a deadlock when a thread holds both locks at the same time,
then temporarily drop the ocaml lock, while another thread calls another libxl
function.
To avoid deadlocks, we drop the ocaml heap lock before entering libxl, and
reacquire it in callbacks to ocaml. This way, the ocaml heap lock is never held
together with the libxl lock, except in osevent registration callbacks, and
xentoollog callbacks. If we guarantee to not call any libxl functions inside
those callbacks, we can avoid deadlocks.
This patch handle the dropping and reacquiring of the ocaml heap lock by the
caml_enter_blocking_section and caml_leave_blocking_section functions, and
related macros. We are also careful to not call any functions that access the
ocaml heap while the ocaml heap lock is dropped. This often involves copying
ocaml values to C before dropping the ocaml lock.

Having bindings to the low-level functions libxl_osevent_register_hooks and

or one that is available elsewhere.
The Lwt cooperative threads library (http://ocsigen.org/lwt/), which is quite
popular these days, has an event loop that can be easily extended to poll any
additional fds that we get from libxl. Lwt provides a "lightweight" threading
model, which does not let you run any other (POSIX) threads in your
