Currently struct libxl__domain_suspend_state contains 2 type of states,
one is save state, another is suspend state. This patch separates those
two out.
The motivation of this is that COLO will need to do suspend/resume
continuously, we need a more common suspend state.
After this change, dss stands for libxl__domain_save_state,
dsps stands for libxl__domain_suspend_state.
Also introduce libxl__domain_suspend_init to initialise the
libxl__domain_suspend_state.

A user reported[0] that xl create failed with just:
libxl: error: libxl_create.c:892:initiate_domain_create: Unable to set domain build info defaults
and some resulting fallout, but without indicating why it was unable
to set the defaults, even in verbose mode[1].
Go through libxl__domain_{create,build}_info_setdefault and ensure
that each error path logs something.
In most cases this involved simply adding a call to LOG.
In two cases this involved switching from strdup to
libxl__strdup(NOGC) and removing the existing error handling.
When switching from qemu-xen to qemu-xen-traditional (because the
former is not available) log at level INFO rather than VERBOSE, so
the message would normally be printed. Also tweak the language here.
I'm not sure all these messages are reachable (some might be shadowed
by previous error paths) but it seems better to err on the side of
caution.

The bootloader may call libxl__file_reference_map(), which mmap's the
pv_kernel and pv_ramdisk into process memory. This was only unmapped,
however, on the success path of libxl__build_pv(). If there were a
failure anywhere between libxl_bootloader.c:parse_bootloader_result()
and the end of libxl__build_pv(), the calls to
libxl__file_reference_unmap() would be skipped, leaking the mapped
virtual memory.
Ideally this would be fixed by adding the unmap calls to the
destruction path for libxl__domain_build_state. Unfortunately the
lifetime of the libxl__domain_build_state is opaque, and it doesn't
have a proper destruction path. But, the only thing in it that isn't
from the gc are these bootloader references, and they are only ever
set for one libxl__domain_build_state, the one which is
libxl__domain_create_state.build_state.
So we can clean up in the exit path from libxl__domain_create_*, which
always comes through domcreate_complete.
Remove the now-redundant unmaps in libxl__build_pv's success path.
This is XSA-160.

The fd passed to us by libvirt for both save and restore has at least
O_NONBLOCK set, which libxl does not expect and therefore fails to
handle any EAGAIN which might arise.
This has been observed with migration v2, but if v1 used to work I
think that would be just be by luck and/or coincidence.
Unix convention (and the principal of least surprise) is usually to
ensure that an fd has no "strange" properties, such as being
non-blocking, when handing it to another component.
However for the convenience of the application arrange instead for
libxl to clear any unexpected flags on the file descriptors it is
given for save or restore and restore them to their original state at
the end. O_NDELAY could be similarly problematic so clear that as
well as O_NONBLOCK.
To do this introduce a pair of new helper functions one to modify+save
the flags and another to restore them and call them in the appropriate
places.
The migration v1 code appeared to do some things with O_NONBLOCK in
the checkpoint case. Migration v2 doesn't seem to do so, and in any
case I wouldn't expect it to be relying on libvirt's setting of
O_NONBLOCK when xl doesn't use that flag.

While building a VM, HVM domain builder provides struct hvm_info_table{}
to help hvmloader. Currently it includes two fields to construct guest
e820 table by hvmloader, low_mem_pgend and high_mem_pgend. So we should
check them to fix any conflict with RDM.
RMRR can reside in address space beyond 4G theoretically, but we never
see this in real world. So in order to avoid breaking highmem layout
we don't solve highmem conflict. Note this means highmem rmrr could still
be supported if no conflict.
But in the case of lowmem, RMRR probably scatter the whole RAM space.
Especially multiple RMRR entries would worsen this to lead a complicated
memory layout. And then its hard to extend hvm_info_table{} to work
hvmloader out. So here we're trying to figure out a simple solution to
avoid breaking existing layout. So when a conflict occurs,
#1. Above a predefined boundary (2G)
- move lowmem_end below reserved region to solve conflict;
#2. Below a predefined boundary (2G)
- Check strict/relaxed policy.
"strict" policy leads to fail libxl. Note when both policies
are specified on a given region, 'strict' is always preferred.
"relaxed" policy issue a warning message and also mask this entry INVALID
to indicate we shouldn't expose this entry to hvmloader.
Note later we need to provide a parameter to set that predefined boundary
dynamically.

No functional change. [ Suggested by Tiejun Chen. ]
v13: Mechanical changes to deal with changes to patch 01/
XENMEM_reserved_device_memory_map.
This patch introduces user configurable parameters to specify RDM
resource and according policies,
Global RDM parameter:
rdm = "strategy=host,policy=strict/relaxed"
Per-device RDM parameter:
pci = [ 'sbdf, rdm_policy=strict/relaxed' ]
Global RDM parameter, "strategy", allows user to specify reserved regions
explicitly, Currently, using 'host' to include all reserved regions reported
on this platform which is good to handle hotplug scenario. In the future
this parameter may be further extended to allow specifying random regions,
e.g. even those belonging to another platform as a preparation for live
migration with passthrough devices. By default this isn't set so we don't
check all rdms. Instead, we just check rdm specific to a given device if
you're assigning this kind of device. Note this option is not recommended
unless you can make sure any conflict does exist.
'strict/relaxed' policy decides how to handle conflict when reserving RDM
regions in pfn space. If conflict exists, 'strict' means an immediate error
so VM can't keep running, while 'relaxed' allows moving forward with a
warning message thrown out.
Default per-device RDM policy is same as default global RDM policy as being
'relaxed'. And the per-device policy would override the global policy like
others.

v3: Simplify, use named constants for API
This is a complicated set of changes which must be done together for
bisectability.
* libxl-save-helper is updated to unconditionally use libxc migration
v2.
* libxl compatibility workarounds in libxc are disabled for restore

* libxl__stream_read_start() is logically spliced into the event
location where libxl__xc_domain_restore() used to reside.
* Ownership of the save_helper_state moves to stream_read_state.
The parameters 'hvm', 'pae', and 'superpages' were previously
superfluous, and are completely unused in migration
v2. callbacks->toolstack_restore is handled via a migration v2 record
now, rather than via a callback from libxc.

If you add enough PCI devices then all mmio may not fit below 4G
which may not be the layout the user wanted. This allows you to
increase the below 4G address space that PCI devices can use and
therefore in more cases not have any mmio that is above 4G.
There are real PCI cards that do not support mmio over 4G, so if you
want to emulate them precisely, you may also need to increase the
space below 4G for them. There are drivers for these cards that also
do not work if they have their mmio space mapped above 4G.
This allows growing the MMIO hole to the size needed.
This may help with using pci passthru and HVM.

The current implementation of libxl__device_console_init does the same
memset() so this is identical for now.
If libxl__device_console_init changes in future (e.g. to prefer a non-zero
default value for some field) then this will continue to work.
