-Wint-in-bool-context, enabled by default in gcc 7, doesn't like
multiplication in conditional operators. "Hide" them, at the risk of
the next compiler version becoming smarter and recognizing even those.
(The hope is that added smartness then would also better deal with
legitimate cases like the ones here.)
The change could have been done in access_ok(), but I think we better

The same set of functions is used to set as well as to clean
P2M entries, except that for clean operations INVALID_MFN (~0UL)
is passed as a parameter. Unfortunately, when calculating an
appropriate target order for a particular mapping INVALID_MFN
is not taken into account which leads to 4K page target order
being set each time even for 2MB and 1GB mappings. This eventually
breaks down an EPT structure irreversibly into 4K mappings which
prevents consecutive high order mappings to this area.

x86/NPT: deal with fallout from 2Mb/1Gb unmapping change
Commit efa9596e9d ("x86/mm: fix incorrect unmapping of 2MB and 1GB
pages") left the NPT code untouched, as there is no explicit alignment
check matching the one in EPT code. However, the now more widespread
storing of INVALID_MFN into PTEs requires adjustments:
- calculations when shattering large pages may spill into the p2m type
field (converting p2m_populate_on_demand to p2m_grant_map_rw) - use
OR instead of PLUS,
- the use of plain l{2,3}e_from_pfn() in p2m_pt_set_entry() results in
all upper (flag) bits being clobbered - introduce and use
p2m_l{2,3}e_from_pfn(), paralleling the existing L1 variant.

Testing has revealed two issues:
1) Passing a NULL handle to set_trap_table() is intended to flush the entire
table. The 64bit guest case (and 32bit guest on 32bit Xen, when it
existed) called init_int80_direct_trap() to reset int80_bounce, but c/s
cda335c279 which introduced the 32bit guest on 64bit Xen support omitted
this step. Previously therefore, it was impossible for a 32bit guest to
reset its registered int80_bounce details.
2) init_int80_direct_trap() doesn't honour the guests request to have
interrupts disabled on entry. PVops Linux requests that interrupts are
disabled, but Xen currently leaves them enabled when following the int80
fastpath.

Setting Pin Control (PC) bit (19) in MSR_P6_EVNTSEL results in a General
Protection Fault and thus results in a hypervisor crash. This behavior has
been observed on two generations of Intel processors namely, Haswell and
Broadwell. Other Intel processor generations were not tested. However, it
does seem to be a possible erratum that hasn't yet been confirmed by Intel.
To fix the problem this patch masks PC bit and returns an error in
case any guest tries to write to it on any Intel processor. In addition
to the fact that setting this bit crashes the hypervisor on Haswell and
Broadwell, the PC flag bit toggles a hardware pin on the physical CPU
every time the programmed event occurs and the hardware behavior in
response to the toggle is undefined in the SDM, which makes this bit
unsafe to be used by guests and hence should be masked on all machines.

Under some circumstances (most notably, on AMD hardware with Debug Extensions,

The packet telling us to end the transaction has always carried an

If the transaction made no modifications to the tree, now we ignore
that argument and do not commit: it is just a waste of effort.
This makes read-only transactions immune to conflicts, and means that
we do not need to store any of their details in the history that is
used for assigning blame for conflicts.
We count a transaction as a read-only transaction only if it contains
no operations that modified the tree.
This means that (for example) a transaction that creates a new node
then deletes it would NOT count as read-only, even though it makes no
change overall. A more sophisticated algorithm could judge the

The history of commits is to be used for working out which historical
commit(s) (including atomic writes) caused conflicts with a
currently-failing commit of a transaction. Any commit that was made
before the current transaction started cannot be relevant. Therefore
we never need to keep history from before the start of the
longest-running transaction that is open at any given time: whenever a
transaction ends (with or without a commit) then if it was the
longest-running open transaction we can delete history up until start
of the the next-longest-running open transaction.
Some transactions might stay open for a very long time, so if any
transaction exceeds conflict_max_history_seconds then we remove it
from consideration in this context, and will not guarantee to keep
remembering about historical commits made during such a transaction.
We implement this by keeping a list of all open transactions that have
not been open too long. When a transaction ends, we remove it from the
list, along with any that have been open longer than the maximum; then
we delete any history from before the start of the longest-running
transaction remaining in the list.

The existing transaction merge algorithm keeps track of the least upper bound
(longest common prefix) of all the nodes which have been read and written, and
will re-combine two stores which have disjoint upper bounds. This works well for
small transactions but causes unnecessary conflicts for ones that span a large
subtree, such as the following ones used by the xapi toolstack:
* VM start: creates /vm/... /vss/... /local/domain/...
The least upper bound of this transaction is / and so all
these transactions conflict with everything.
* Device hotplug: creates /local/domain/0/... /local/domain/n/...
The least upper bound of this transaction is /local/domain so
all these transactions conflict with each other.
If the existing merge algorithm cannot merge and commit, we attempt
a /replay/ of the failed transaction against the new store.
When we replay the requests we check whether the response sent to the client is
the same as during the first attempt at the transaction. If the responses are
all the same then the transaction replay can be committed. If any differ then
the transaction replay must be aborted and the client must retry.
This algorithm uses the intuition that the transactions made by the toolstack
are designed to be for separate domains, and should fundamentally not conflict
in the sense that they don't read or write any shared keys. By replaying the
transaction on the server side we do what the client would have to do anyway,
only we can do it quickly without allowing any other requests to interfere.

Within context_saved(), we call the context_saved hook,
and we use VCPU2OP() to determine from what scheduler.
VCPU2OP uses DOM2OP, which uses d->cpupool, which is
NULL when d is the idle domain. And in that case,
DOM2OP just returns ops, the scheduler of cpupool0.
Therefore, if:
- cpupool0's scheduler defines context_saved (like
Credit2 and RTDS do),
- we are not in cpupool0 (i.e., our scheduler is
not ops),
- we are context switching from idle,
we call VCPU2OP(idle_vcpu), which means
DOM2OP(idle->cpupool), which is ops.
Therefore, we both:
- check if context_saved is defined in the wrong
scheduler;
- if yes, call the wrong one.
When using Credit2 at boot, and also Credit2 in
the other cpupool, this is wrong but innocuous,
because it only involves the idle vcpus.
When using Credit2 at boot, and Credit1 in the
other cpupool, this is *totally* wrong, and
it's by chance it does not explode!

Fix this by dealing explicitly, in VCPU2OP, with
idle vcpus, returning the scheduler of the pCPU
they (always) run on.

When booting straight from EFI, we don't further try to relocate Xen.
As a result, so far we also didn't avoid the area Xen uses when looking
for a location to put modules or the kexec area. Introduce a fake
module slot to deal with that without having to fiddle with a lot of
code.

There seems to be some weird bug in clang 4.0 that prevents xsm_pmu_op from
working as expected, and vpmu.o ends up with a reference to
__xsm_action_mismatch_detected which makes the build fail:
[...]
ld -melf_x86_64_fbsd -T xen.lds -N prelink.o \
xen/common/symbols-dummy.o -o xen/.xen-syms.0
prelink.o: In function `xsm_default_action':
xen/include/xsm/dummy.h:80: undefined reference to `__xsm_action_mismatch_detected'
xen/xen/include/xsm/dummy.h:80: relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_PC32 against undefined symbol `__xsm_action_mismatch_detected'
ld: xen/xen/.xen-syms.0: hidden symbol `__xsm_action_mismatch_detected' isn't defined
Then doing a search in the objects files:
# find xen/ -type f -name '*.o' -print0 | xargs -0 bash -c \
'for filename; do nm "$filename" | \
grep -q __xsm_action_mismatch_detected && echo "$filename"; done' bash
xen/arch/x86/prelink.o
xen/arch/x86/cpu/vpmu.o
xen/arch/x86/cpu/built_in.o
xen/arch/x86/built_in.o
The current patch is the only way I've found to fix this so far, by simply
moving the XSM_PRIV check into the default case in xsm_pmu_op. This also fixes
the behavior of do_xenpmu_op, which will now return -EINVAL for unknown
XENPMU_* operations, instead of -EPERM when called by a privileged domain.

master date: 2017-03-14 18:19:29 +0100
There where a couple of unneeded packed attributes in several x86-specific
structures, that are obviously aligned. The only non-trivial one is
vmcb_struct, which has been checked to have the same layout with and without
the packed attribute using pahole. In that case add a build-time size check to
be on the safe side.
No functional change is expected as a result of this commit.
