If hardware support the 1GB pages, expose the feature to guest by
default. Users don't have to use a 'cpuid= ' option in config fil
e to turn it on.
If guest use shadow mode, the 1GB pages feature will be hidden from
guest, this is done in the function hvm_cpuid(). So the change is
okay for shadow mode case.

The presence of the partition reference time enlightenment persuades newer
versions of Windows to prefer the TSC as their primary time source. Hence,
if rdtsc is not being emulated and is invariant then many vmexits (for
alternative time sources such as the HPET or reference counter MSR) can
be avoided.
The implementation is not yet complete as no attempt is made to prevent
emulation of rdtsc if the enlightenment is active and guest and host
TSC frequencies differ. To do that requires invasive changes in the core
x86 time code and hence a lot more testing.
This patch avoids the issue by disabling the enlightenment if rdtsc is
being emulated, causing Windows to choose another time source. This is
safe, but may cause a big variation in performance of guests migrated
between hosts of differing TSC frequency. Thus the enlightenment is not
enabled in the default set, but may be enabled to improve guest performance
where such migrations are not a concern.

Specification v4.0a for details.

Using SELinux mount options per default breaks several systems.
Either the context= mount option is not known at all to the kernel,
as reported for ArchLinux. Or the default value "none" is unknown to
SELinux, as reported for Fedora. In both cases the unit will fail.
The proper place to specify mount options is /etc/fstab. Apparently
systemd is kind enough to use values from there even if Options= or
What= is specified in a .mount file.
Remove XENSTORED_MOUNT_CTX, the reference to a non-existent
EnvironmentFile and trim default Options= for the mount point.
The removed code was first mentioned in the patch referenced below,
with the following description:
...
* Some systems define the selinux context in the systemd Option for
the /var/lib/xenstored tmpfs:
Options=mode=755,context="system_u:object_r:xenstored_var_lib_t:s0"
For the upstream version we remove that and let systems specify
the context on their system /etc/default/xenstored or
/etc/sysconfig/xenstored $XENSTORED_MOUNT_CTX variable
...
It is nowhere stated (on xen-devel) what "Some systems" means, which
is unfortunately common practice in nearly all opensource projects.

In these cases if force=1, it makes sense to go ahead with rest of the

At the moment libxl unconditinally passes the underlying file format

tapdisk handles the underlying format and presents qemu with
effectively a raw disk. When qemu looks at the tapdisk block device
and doesn't find the image format it was looking for, it will fail.
This effectively means that tapdisk cannot be used with HVM domains at
the moment except for raw files.
Instead, if we're using a tapdisk backend, tell qemu to use a raw file

The error handling from a failed memory allocation should return
PyErr_SetFromErrno(xc_error_obj); rather than simply calling it and continuing
to the memcpy() below, with the dest pointer being NULL.
Coverity also complains about passing a non-NUL terminated string to
xc_flask_context_to_sid(). xc_flask_context_to_sid() doesn't actually take a
NUL terminated string, but it does take a char* which, in context, used to be
a string, which is why Coverity complains.
One solution would be to use strdup(ctx) which is simpler than a
strlen()/malloc()/memcpy() combo, which would result in a NUL-terminated
string being used with xc_flask_context_to_sid().
However, ctx is strictly an input to the hypercall and is not mutated along
the way. Both these issues can be fixed, and the error logic simplified, by
not duplicating ctx in the first place.

libxl_event_register_callbacks cannot reasonably be called while libxl
is busy (has outstanding operations and/or enabled events).
This is because the previous spec implied (although not entirely
clearly) that event hooks would not be called for existing fd and
timeout interests. There is thus no way to reliably ensure that libxl
would get told about fds and timeouts which it became interested in
beforehand.
So there have to be no such fds or timeouts, which means that the
callbacks must only be registered or changed when the ctx is idle.
Document this restriction, and enforce it with a pair of asserts.
(It would be nicer, perhaps, to say that the application may not call
libxl_osevent_register_hooks other than right after creating the ctx.
But there are existing callers, including libvirt, who do it later -
even after doing major operations such as domain creation.)

Do not register the evtchn fd multiple times: check it's not

We want to have no fd events registered when we are idle.
Also, we should put back the default SIGCHLD handler. So:
* In libxl_ctx_free, use libxl_childproc_setmode to set the mode to
the default, which is libxl_sigchld_owner_libxl (ie `libxl owns
SIGCHLD only when it has active children').
But of course there are no active children at libxl teardown so
this results in libxl__sigchld_notneeded: the ctx loses its
interest in SIGCHLD (unsetting the SIGCHLD handler if we were the
last ctx) and deregisters the per-ctx selfpipe fd.
* assert that this is the case: ie that we are no longer interested
in the selfpipe.

c/s d1b93ea causes substantial functional regressions in pygrub's ability to
parse bootloader configuration files.
c/s d1b93ea itself changed an an interface which previously used exclusively
integers, to using strings in the case of a grub configuration with explicit
default set, along with changing the code calling the interface to require a
string. The default value for "default" remained as an integer.
As a result, any Extlinux or Lilo configuration (which drives this interface
exclusively with integers), or Grub configuration which doesn't explicitly
declare a default will die with an AttributeError when attempting to call
"self.cf.default.isdigit()" where "default" is an integer.
Sadly, this AttributeError gets swallowed by the blanket ignore in the loop
which searches partitions for valid bootloader configurations, causing the
issue to be reported as "Unable to find partition containing kernel"
We should explicitly check type of "default" in image_index() and process it
appropriately.

[ ijc -- added second paragraph to commit message ]
When parsing bitmap objects JSON parser will create libxl_bitmap map of the
smallest size needed.
This can cause problems when saved image file specifies CPU affinity. For
example, if 'vcpu_hard_affinity' in the saved image has only the first CPU
specified, just a single byte will be allocated and libxl_bitmap->size will be
set to 1.
This will result in assertion in libxl_set_vcpuaffinity()->libxl_bitmap_copy()
since the destination bitmap is created for maximum number of CPUs.
We could allocate that bitmap of the same size as the source, however, it is
later passed to xc_vcpu_setaffinity() which expects it to be sized to the max
number of CPUs
To fix this issue, introduce an internal function to allowing copying between
bitmaps of different sizes. Note that this function is only used in
libxl_set_vcpuaffinity at the moment. Though NUMA placement logic invoke
libxl_bitmap_copy as well there's no need to replace those invocations. NUMA
placement logic comes into effect when no vcpu / node pinning is provided, so
it always operates on bitmap of the same sizes (that is, size of maximum
number of cpus /nodes).
