SMEP/SMAP is a security feature to prevent kernel executing/accessing
user address involuntarily, any such behavior will lead to a page fault.
SMEP/SMAP is open (in CR4) for both Xen and HVM guest in earlier code.
SMEP/SMAP bit set in Xen CR4 would enforce security checking for 32-bit
PV guest which will suffer unknown SMEP/SMAP page fault when guest
kernel attempt to access user address although SMEP/SMAP is close for
PV guests.
This patch introduces a new boot option value "hvm" for "sm{e,a}p", it
is going to diable SMEP/SMAP for Xen hypervisor while enable them for
HVM. In this way, 32-bit PV guest will not suffer SMEP/SMAP security
issue. Users can choose whether open SMEP/SMAP for Xen itself,
especially when they are going to run 32-bit PV guests.

The arm64 build for libacpi was broken due to two reasons:
1. ACPI_BUILD_DIR was appended twice to dsdt_anycpu_arm.c.
2. The inclusion of firmware/Rules.mk overrided XEN_TARGET_ARCH, which
made CONFIG_ARM disappear.
Fix those by:
1. Correctly generate full path for dsdt_anaycpu_arm.c.
2. Include tools/Rules.mk instead, because libacpi/Makefile doesn't rely
on settings in firmware/Rules.mk.
While at it, use CONFIG_ARM_64 instead of CONFIG_ARM as it is more

If a timer handler runs a long time, it will block nmi_timer_fn()

Being architecturally required behavior, the logic gets placed in the

though, that hvmemul_get_fpu() being the only current handler for the

in one sub-call: XEN_SYSCTL_TMEM_OP_GET_POOLS.
These operations are used during the save process of migration.
Instead of doing 64 hypercalls lets do just one. We modify
the 'struct xen_tmem_client' structure (used in
XEN_SYSCTL_TMEM_OP_[GET|SET]_CLIENT_INFO) to have an extra field
'nr_pools'. Armed with that the code slurping up pages from the
hypervisor can allocate a big enough structure (struct tmem_pool_info)
to contain all the active pools. And then just iterate over each
one and save it in the stream.
We are also re-using one of the subcommands numbers for this,
as such the XEN_SYSCTL_INTERFACE_VERSION should be incremented
and that was done in the patch titled:
"tmem/libxc: Squash XEN_SYSCTL_TMEM_OP_[SET|SAVE].."
In the xc_tmem_[save|restore] we also added proper memory handling
of the 'buf' and 'pools'. Because of the loops and to make it as
easy as possible to review we add a goto label and for almost
all error conditions jump in it.
The include for inttypes is required for the PRId64 macro to
work (which is needed to compile this code under 32-bit).

Since that code is only used during migration which is tied

-1 for any type of failure.
And SAVE_END (which you would think would mirror SAVE_BEGIN)
had 0 for success and -1 if guest did not any tmem enabled for it.
This is confusing. Now the code will return 0 if the operation was
success. Various XEN_EXX values are returned if tmem is not enabled
or the operation could not performed.
The xc_tmem.c code only needs one place to check - where we use
SAVE_BEGIN. The place where RESTORE_BEGIN is used will have errno
with the proper error value and return will be -1, so will still

Specifically:
XEN_SYSCTL_TMEM_OP_SET_[WEIGHT,COMPRESS] are now done via:
XEN_SYSCTL_TMEM_SET_CLIENT_INFO
and XEN_SYSCTL_TMEM_OP_SAVE_GET_[VERSION,MAXPOOLS,
CLIENT_WEIGHT, CLIENT_FLAGS] can now be retrieved via:
XEN_SYSCTL_TMEM_GET_CLIENT_INFO
All this information is now in 'struct xen_tmem_client' and
that is what we pass around.
We also rev up the XEN_SYSCTL_INTERFACE_VERSION as we are
re-using the value number of the deleted ones (and henceforth
the information is retrieved differently).
On the toolstack, prior to this patch, the xc_tmem_control
would use the bounce buffer only when arg1 was set and the cmd
was to list. With the 'XEN_SYSCTL_TMEM_OP_SET_[WEIGHT|COMPRESS]'
that made sense as the 'arg1' would have the value. However
for the other ones (say XEN_SYSCTL_TMEM_OP_SAVE_GET_POOL_UUID)
the 'arg1' would be the length of the 'buf'. If this
confusing don't despair, patch patch titled:
tmem/xc_tmem_control: Rename 'arg1' to 'len' and 'arg2' to arg.
takes care of that.
The acute reader of the toolstack code will discover that
we only used the bounce buffer for LIST, not for any other
subcommands that used 'buf'!?! Which means that the contents
of 'buf' would never be copied back to the calleer 'buf'!
The author is not sure how this could possibly work, perhaps Xen 4.1
(when this was introduced) was more relaxed about the bounce buffer
being enabled. Anyhow this fixes xc_tmem_control to do it for
any subcommand that has 'arg1'.
Lastly some of the checks in xc_tmem_[restore|save] are removed
as they can't ever be reached (not even sure how they could
have been reached in the original submission). One of them
is the check for the weight against -1 when in fact the
hypervisor would never have provided that value.
Now the checks are simple - as the hypercall always returns
->version and ->maxpools (which is mirroring how it was done
prior to this patch). But if one wants to check the if a guest
has any tmem activity then the patch titled
"tmem: Batch and squash XEN_SYSCTL_TMEM_OP_SAVE_GET_POOL_
[FLAGS,NPAGES,UUID] in one sub-call: XEN_SYSCTL_TMEM_OP_GET_POOLS."
adds an ->nr_pools to check for that.
Also we add the check for ->version and ->maxpools and remove
the TODO.

Credit2 is already event based, rather than tick

during the i-eth scheduling decision, and a timer
is set accordingly.
If there's nothing imminent (or, the most imminent
event is really really really far away), it is
ok to say "well, let's double-check things in
a little bit anyway", but such 'little bit' does
not need to be too little, as, most likely, it's
just pure overhead.
The current period, for this "safety catch"-alike
timer is 2ms, which indeed is high, but it can
