A hypercall issued via the privcmd driver can very rarely return
-EFAULT even if the hypercall buffers are locked in memory. This
happens for hypercall buffers in user memory when the Linux kernel
is doing memory scans e.g. for page migration or compaction.
Retry the getpageframeinfo3 hypercall up to 2 times in case
-EFAULT is returned and the hypervisor might see invalid PTEs for
user hypercall buffers (which should be the case only if the kernel
doesn't offer a /dev/xen/hypercall node).

Mixed throughout libxc are uint32_t, int, and domid_t for domid parameters.
With a signed type, and an explicitly 16-bit type, it is exceedingly difficult
to construct an INVALID_DOMID constant which works with all of them. (The
main problem being that domid_t gets unconditionally zero extended when
promoted to int for arithmatic.)
Libxl uses uint32_t consistently everywhere, so alter libxc to match.

It is important to note that the xc_version_op has a different

libxencall will provide a stable API and ABI for calling hypercalls
(although those hypercalls themselves may not have a stable API). As
well as the hypercall buffer infrastructure needed in order to safely
provide pointer arguments to hypercalls.
libxenctrl encapsulates a instance of this interface, so users of that
library are not currently subjected to any actual changes. However all
hypercalls made internally by libxc now use the correct interface. It
is expected that most users of this library will be other libraries
providing a higher level interface, rather than applications directly.
Only the basic functionality to allocate hypercall safe memory is
moved, the type safe stuff and bounce buffers remain in libxc.
Note that the functionality to map foreign pages using privcmd is not
yet moved, meaning that an xc_interface will now contain two open
privcmd file descriptors. Foreign memory mapping is logically separate
functionality and will be moved into its own library.
The new library uses a version script to ensure that only expected
symbols are exported and to version them such that ABI guarantees can
be kept in the future.

xc_report_progress_single()

xc_report_progress_step()

Guests are initially started with caches disabled and so we need to make sure
they see consistent data in RAM (requiring a cache clean) but also that they
do not have old stale data suddenly appear in the caches when they enable
their caches (requiring the invalidate).
This can be split into two halves. First we must flush each page as it is
allocated to the guest. It is not sufficient to do the flush at scrub time
since this will miss pages which are ballooned out by the guest (where the
guest must scrub if it cares about not leaking the pagecontent). We need to
clean as well as invalidate to make sure that any scrubbing which has occured
gets committed to real RAM. To achieve this add a new cacheflush_page function,
which is a stub on x86.
Secondly we need to flush anything which the domain builder touches, which we
do via a new domctl.

This reverts commit a0035ecc0d.
Even with this fix there is a period between the flush and the unmap where
processor may speculate data into the cache. The solution is to map this
region uncached or to use the HCR.DC bit to mark all guest accesses cached.
89eb02c220 "xen: arm: force guest memory accesses to cacheable when MMU is
disabled" has arranged to do the latter.
Signed-off-by: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@citrix.com>
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.

In do_mmu_update() (in the hypervisor) the parameter 'foreigndom' is

parts utilised, as explained here:
http://xenbits.xen.org/docs/unstable/hypercall/include,public,xen.h.html#Func_HYPERVISOR_mmu_update
However, the actual parameter, i.e., the 'subject' field in
struct xc_mmu is declared as domid_t, which typedef-s to uint16_t.
This means we are never able to pass anything via the higher 16 bits

Add some statistics tracking to the hypercall buffer allocations.
The cache size of 4 was chosen based on these statistics since they
indicated that 2 pages was sufficient to satisfy all concurrent single
