Jason Andryuk ddc2dd1264 xenconsole: Add connection flag
With hyperlaunch, a domU can start before its console ring is connected
by xenconsoled.  With nothing emptying the ring, it can quickly fill
during boot.  In domU_write_console(), __write_console() returns 0 when
the ring is full.  This loops spins until xenconsoled starts emptying
the ring:

        while (len) {
                ssize_t sent = __write_console(cons, data, len);

                if (sent < 0)
                        return sent;

                data += sent;
                len -= sent;

                if (unlikely(len))
                        HYPERVISOR_sched_op(SCHEDOP_yield, NULL);
        }

The goal of this patch is to add a way for the frontend to know when a
console is connected.  This patch adds a new flag to the end of the
console ring structure.  It is used for the backend to indicate that it
has connected and started servicing the page.

The two values are
XENCONSOLE_DISCONNECTED 1
XENCONSOLE_CONNECTED    0

XENCONSOLE_DISCONNECTED indicates to the guest that ring is
disconnected, so it will not be serviced.  The guest can avoid writing
into it in that case.  A domU can use console hypercalls and only
transition to the ring when it is connected and won't fill and block.

Once the backend (xenconsoled) maps and starts servicing the
console, the flag will be set to XENCONSOLE_CONNECTED (0) to indicate
the backend state to the frontend.

The connected value as 0 will be match the default of a zero-ed console
page.  Hyperlaunch can set the flag to XENCONSOLE_DISCONNECTED and let
xenconsoled set to XENCONSOLE_CONNECTED.

Old domU hvc_xen drivers won't check the flag.
New domU hvc_xen running on a new xen/xenconsoled will work properly.
New domU hvc_xen on old xen/xenconsoled should only see a 0 for the flag
and behave as if connected.

Frediano Ziglio 50baf2d9f7 tools/libs/guest: Use superpages where possible on migrate/resume
Right now on migrate/resume, all guest memory is allocated with 4k
small pages.  This was an intended oversight in the original Migration
v2 implementation.

With some test memory program stressing TLB (many small random memory
accesses) superpages can show a 15% performance improvement.

On the first memory iteration the sender is currently sending memory
in 4MB aligned chunks of GFN space which allows the receiver to
allocate most pages as 2MB superpages instead of single 4KB pages.

This change does not handle 1GB superpages as this will require
changes to the migration protocol.

Penny Zheng e3305043b2 tools/cpufreq: extract CPPC para from cpufreq para
We extract cppc info from "struct xen_get_cpufreq_para", where it acts as
a member of union, and share the space with governor info.
However, it may fail in amd-cppc passive mode, in which governor info and
CPPC info could co-exist, and both need to be printed together via xenpm tool.
If we tried to still put it in "struct xen_get_cpufreq_para" (e.g. just move
out of union), "struct xen_get_cpufreq_para" will enlarge too much to further
make xen_sysctl.u exceed 128 bytes.

So we introduce a new sub-field GET_CPUFREQ_CPPC to dedicatedly acquire
CPPC-related para, and make get-cpufreq-para invoke GET_CPUFREQ_CPPC
if available.
New helpers print_cppc_para() and get_cpufreq_cppc() are introduced to
extract CPPC-related parameters process from cpufreq para.

Alejandro Vallejo b59e564aa0 libacpi: Remove CPU hotplug and GPE handling from PVH DSDTs
PVH guests have no DM, so this causes the guest to fetch the online CPU
bitmap from an unbacked 0xaf00 PIO port when executing the GPE handler.

Seeing how ACPI CPU hotplug is the only event delivered via GPE, remove
the GPE handler in addition to anything ACPI CPU hotplug related.

This shrinks PVH's DSDT substantially and prevents spuriously executing
a large amount of AML with no purpose at all.

Grygorii Strashko 10e7473d60 xen/arm: scmi-smc: passthrough SCMI SMC to domain, single agent
The commit 3e322bef8b ("xen/arm: firmware: Add SCMI over SMC calls
handling layer") introduces simple driver which forwards SCMI over SMC
calls from hwdom/dom0 to EL3 firmware (TF-A) with a single SCMI OSPM agent
support. While it is working gracefully for hwdom/dom0 use case it doesn't
cover "thin Dom0 with guest domain, which serves as Driver domain"
use-case. In this case HW need to be enable in Driver domain and dom0 is
performing only control functions.

The EL3 SCMI firmware (TF-A) with a single SCMI OSPM agent support is
pretty generic case for the default vendors SDK and new platforms.

This patch enables passthrough of SCMI SMC single agent interface to the
one guest domain serving as Driver domain.

Configure Dom0 to enable SCMI passthrough:

 - dom0: add scmi-smc-passthrough to the Xen Command Line

Enabled SCMI passthrough for guest using toolstack in the following way:

 - domD: xl.cfg add "arm_sci" option as below

   arm_sci = "type=scmi_smc"

 - domD: xl.cfg enable access to the "arm,scmi-shmem"

iomem = [
    "47ff0,1@22001",
]

 - domD: add SCMI nodes to the Driver domain partial device tree as in the
 below example:

passthrough {
   scmi_shm_0: sram@22001000 {
       compatible = "arm,scmi-shmem";
       reg = <0x0 0x22001000 0x0 0x1000>;
   };

   firmware {
        compatible = "simple-bus";
            scmi: scmi {
                compatible = "arm,scmi-smc";
                shmem = <&scmi_shm_0>;
                ...
            }
    }
}

dom0less case configuration:

- add "xen,sci_type" property for required DomU ("xen,domain") node

   xen,sci_type="scmi_smc"

- add scmi nodes to the Driver domain partial device tree the same way
as above and enable access to the "arm,scmi-shmem" according to
dom0less documentation. For example:

  scmi_shm_0: sram@22001000 {
        compatible = "arm,scmi-shmem";
        reg = <0x00 0x22001000 0x00 0x1000>;
->        xen,reg = <0x0 0x47ff0000 0x0 0x1000 0x0 0x22001000>;
->        xen,force-assign-without-iommu;
  };

The SCMI SMC single agent interface can be enabled for one and only one
domain. In general, the configuration is similar to any other HW
passthrough, except explicitly enabling SCMI with "arm_sci" xl.cfg option.

Note that "arm,scmi-smc" and "arm,scmi-shmem" nodes will be removed from
dom0/hwdom DT when "scmi-smc-passthrough" cmdline parameter was provided.

Jahan Murudi 45bb8868ef tools/xentop: Add physical CPU statistics support
Introduce a new '-p/--pcpus' flag to display physical CPU utilization metrics
using xc_interface. This provides hypervisor-level CPU usage insights alongside
existing domain statistics. This helps correlate VM resource usage with host CPU
load patterns.

Changes:
- Add pcpu.c/pcpu.h for PCPU stat collection logic
- Link against libxenctrl for xc_handle access
- Extend CLI with '-p' flag and output formatting
- Forward declare xenstat_handle to access xc_handle
- Include cleanup for PCPU resources in exit handler

Example usage:
  xentop -p  # Shows physical CPU stats
  xentop -bp # Batch mode
  xentop -d 1 -p # With different delays

Example output with '-p':
  NAME      STATE   CPU(%)  MEM(%)  VCPUS ...
  Domain-0  -----r    17.0     6.3      8
  DomD      -----r   767.0    38.1      8

  Physical CPU Usage:
  ┌───────┬────────┐
  │ Core  │ Usage  │
  ├───────┼────────┤
  │ 0     │  98.1% │
  │ ...   │  ...   │

Anton Belousov 9f114abb37 hvmloader: add new SMBIOS tables (7, 8, 9, 26, 27, 28)
Some SMBIOS tables are used by certain malware families to detect virtualized
environments via WMI queries.

To improve stealth for sandboxing purposes, this patch adds support
for populating these SMBIOS tables from an external binary specified
via the "smbios_firmware" domain config option:

* 7 - Cache Info
* 8 - Port Connector
* 9 - System Slots
* 26 - Voltage Probe
* 27 - Cooling Device
* 28 - Temperature Probe

If particular table is absent in binary file, then it will not be mapped to
memory. This method works for Windows domains as tables 7,8,9,26,27,28 are not
critical for OS boot and runtime. Also if "smbios_firmware" parameter is not
provided, these tables will be skipped in write_smbios_tables function.

Petr Beneš 2f7d52f016 hvmloader: fix SMBIOS table length checks
SMBIOS specification dictates that tables should have a minimal length.
This commit introduces further validation for user-input SMBIOS tables.

As per SMBIOS Reference Specification:
* Type 0: For version 2.3 and later implementations, the length is at least 14h
* Type 1: 1Bh for 2.4 and later
* Type 2: at least 08h
* Type 3: 0Dh for version 2.1 and later
* Type 11: 5h (+ strings)
* Type 22: 1Ah (+ strings)
* Type 39: a minimum of 10h

Notably, this also fixes previously incorrect check for chassis handle in
smbios_type_2_init. Chassis handle is a WORD, therefore, the condition now
correctly checks for >= 13 instead of > 13.

hvmloader currently implements version 2.4

Furthermore, this commit introduces smbios_pt_copy helper function to substitute
previously repeating pattern of locating the struct in physical memory (via
get_smbios_pt_struct), checking the length and copying it into SMBIOS region.

Rename to store_domid to better show its purpose.

One implication of this change is that the xenstore domain is not
privileged by virtue of considering store_domid as privileged.

domain_is_unprivileged() removes the dom0_domid/store_domid check, so
xenstore domain is no longer considered privileged.

onearg_domain() is updated to return EINVAL for store_domid or priv_domid

Jason Andryuk 1b4e935f45 tools/xenstored: Check NULL domain in domain_chk_quota()
With separate control and xenstore domains, the xenstore domain itself
is no longer privileged.  Local socket connections do not have
conn->domain assigned, but domain_chk_quota() will go ahead and
dereference it.  The !domid_is_unprivileged(conn->id) check usually
means the function would have already returned.

Bail out on !conn->domain to avoid faulting.  This adds a similar check
to that in domain_max_chk()

Jason Andryuk e5b0a94055 tools/xenstored: Auto-introduce domains
Replace dom0_init() with init_domains() which uses libxenmanage to
iterate through all existing domains, storing them in a list.  The xenstore
domain is introduced first, and then all the other domains are
introduced.  The xenstore domain needs to be introduced first to setup
structures needed for firing watches.

dom0_domid is updated with the xenstore domain, since it really
indicates the local domain.

priv_domid is set to the control domain.  This makes it limited to a
single domain.

These features let xenstore automatically connect any existing domains,
which means it doesn't need to be done manually from init-dom0less.

For a legacy dom0, the result should be unchanged.

For a late xenstore stubdom it should also be the same, but priv_domid
would be set automatically to control domain (which default to 0
normally).

Always signal the event channel for initial domains.  This gets dom0 (a
local xenstored domain) to connect.

Also always write XENSTORE_CONNECTED since we know we are connected at
this point.

To support ARM dom0less domains with xen,enhanced = "no-xenstore" a
failed introduce_domain() becomes non-fatal.  Normally,
HVM_PARAM_STORE_EVTCHN is used to identify .

priv_domid from the command line is used, or the first control domain is
used.

dom0_domid will set to the last xenstore found.  This will handle dom0
or dom0less, where only 1 xenstore domain can exist, or stubdom, where
dom0 and dom1 exist, and we want to take the stubdom.

Jason Andryuk cec885de7f tools/xenstored: Add get_domain_evtchn() to find evtchn
Add helpers to lookup the event channel for a domid.  This hides some
of the differences between dom0 and stubdom xenstored.  Each version
defines its own.

It highlights the different meanings between get_xenbus_evtchn() in a
stubdom, where it looks up dom0's event channel, and dom0, where it
looks up the local event channel.

get_domain_evtchn() replaces get_xenbus_evtchn(), and
get_xenbus_evtchn() is removed from minios.c as it is inlined in the new
function.

The default return 0 will be fine as any other auto-introduced domain
will needs the event channel populated in the grant.

Roger Pau Monne c5c45bcbd6 pdx: introduce a new compression algorithm based on region offsets
With the appearance of Intel Sierra Forest and Granite Rapids it's now
possible to get a production x86 host with the following memory map:

SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [0000000000000000, 000000007fffffff]
SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [0000000100000000, 000000807fffffff]
SRAT: Node 1 PXM 1 [0000063e80000000, 000006be7fffffff]
SRAT: Node 2 PXM 2 [00000c7e80000000, 00000cfe7fffffff]
SRAT: Node 3 PXM 3 [000012be80000000, 0000133e7fffffff]

This is from a four socket Granite Rapids system, with each node having
512GB of memory.  The total amount of RAM on the system is 2TB, but without
enabling CONFIG_BIGMEM the last range is not accessible, as it's above the
16TB boundary covered by the frame table. Sierra Forest and Granite Rapids
are socket compatible, however Sierra Forest only supports 2 socket
configurations, while Granite Rapids can go up to 8 sockets.

Note that while the memory map is very sparse, it couldn't be compressed
using the current PDX_MASK compression algorithm, which relies on all
ranges having a shared zeroed region of bits that can be removed.

The memory map presented above has the property of all regions being
similarly spaced between each other, and all having also a similar size.
Use a lookup table to store the offsets to translate from/to PFN and PDX
spaces.  Such table is indexed based on the input PFN or PDX to translated.
The example PFN layout about would get compressed using the following:

PFN compression using PFN lookup table shift 29 and PDX region size 0x10000000
 range 0 [0000000000000, 0x0000807ffff] PFN IDX  0 : 0000000000000
 range 1 [0x00063e80000, 0x0006be7ffff] PFN IDX  3 : 0x00053e80000
 range 2 [0x000c7e80000, 0x000cfe7ffff] PFN IDX  6 : 0x000a7e80000
 range 3 [0x0012be80000, 0x00133e7ffff] PFN IDX  9 : 0x000fbe80000

Note how the tow ranges belonging to node 0 get merged into a single PDX
region by the compression algorithm.

The default size of lookup tables currently set in Kconfig is 64 entries,
and the example memory map consumes 10 entries.  Such memory map is from a
4 socket Granite Rapids host, which in theory supports up to 8 sockets
according to Intel documentation.  Assuming the layout of a 8 socket system
is similar to the 4 socket one, it would require 21 lookup table entries to
support it, way below the current default of 64 entries.

The valid range of lookup table size is currently restricted from 1 to 512
elements in Kconfig.

An extra array is used to keep track of the base PFN for each translated
range.  Non used slots are set to ~0UL, so that in mfn_valid() the mfn <
base check always fails, thus reporting the mfn as invalid.

Introduce __init_or_pdx_mask and use it on some shared functions between
PDX mask and offset compression, as otherwise some code becomes unreachable
after boot if PDX offset compression is used.  Mark the code as __init in
that case, so it's pruned after boot.

Mykola Kvach e54a6cd6a1 systemd: Add hooks to stop/start xen-watchdog on suspend/resume
This patch adds a systemd sleep hook script to stop the xen-watchdog
service before system suspend and start it again after resume.

Stopping the watchdog before a system suspend operation may look unsafe.
Let's imagine the following situation: 'systemctl suspend' does not
interact with the running service at all. In such a case, the Xen
watchdog daemon freezes just before suspend. If this happens, for
example, right before sending a ping, and Xen has not yet marked the
domain as suspended (is_shutting_down), the Xen watchdog timer may
trigger a false alert.

This is an almost impossible situation, because typically:
    ping time = watchdog timeout / 2

and the watchdog timeout is usually set to a relatively large value
(dozens of seconds).

Still, this is more likely with very short watchdog timeouts. It may
happen in the following scenarios:
    * Significant delays occur between freezing Linux tasks and
      triggering the ACPI or PSCI sleep request or handler.
    * Long delays happen inside Xen between the entrance to the sleep
      trigger and the actual forwarding of the sleep request further.

A similar situation may occur on resume with short timeouts. During the
resume operation, Xen restores timers and the domain context. The Xen
watchdog timer also resumes. If it schedules the domain right before the
watchdog timeout expires, and the daemon responsible for pinging is not
yet running, a timeout might occur.

Both scenarios are rare and typically require very small watchdog
timeouts combined with significant delays in Xen or the Linux kernel
during suspend/resume flows.

Conceptually, however, if activating and pinging the Xen watchdog is the
responsibility of the domain and its services, then the domain should
also manage the watchdog service/daemon lifecycle. This is similar to
what is already done by the Xen watchdog driver inside the Linux kernel.
