In combination with the per-active entry locks, the grant table lock
can be made a read-write lock since the majority of cases only the
read lock is required. The grant table read lock protects against
changes to the table version or size (which are done with the write
lock held).
The write lock is also required when two active entries must be
acquired.
The double lock is still required when updating IOMMU page tables.
With the lock contention being only on the maptrack lock (unless IOMMU
updates are required), performance and scalability is improved.

to /var/lib/xen/dump by most distros to follow FHS.
This change does three things:
- change the default from /var/xen/dump to /var/lib/xen/dump
- provide a configure option to avoid patching the source.
- update docs to refer to the new default location

Allow the user to pass additional nodes to the guest device tree. For
this purpose, everything in the node /passthrough from the partial
device tree will be copied into the guest device tree.
The node /aliases will be also copied to allow the user to define
aliases which can be used by the guest kernel.
A simple partial device tree will look like:
/dts-v1/;
/ {
#address-cells = <2>;
#size-cells = <2>;
passthrough {
compatible = "simple-bus";
ranges;
#address-cells = <2>;
#size-cells = <2>;
/* List of your nodes */
}
};
Note that:
* The interrupt-parent property will be added by the toolstack in
the root node
* The properties compatible, ranges, #address-cells and #size-cells
in /passthrough are mandatory.
The helpers provided by the libfdt don't perform all the necessary
security check on a given device tree. Therefore, only trusted device
tree should be used.
Note: The partial device tree code requires the presence of libfdt
functions which have been only correctly exported in libfdt 1.4.0 and
higher. All the major distributions but Debian Wheezy are using v1.4.0
or higher. It has been decided to disable partial device tree support on
OSes where libfdt doesn't meet the requirement.

Add the specification for a new migration stream format. The document
includes all the details but to summarize:
The existing (legacy) format is dependant on the word size of the
toolstack. This prevents domains from migrating from hosts running
32-bit toolstacks to hosts running 64-bit toolstacks (and vice-versa).
The legacy format lacks any version information making it difficult to
extend in compatible way.
The new format has a header (the image header) with version information,
a domain header with basic information of the domain and a stream of
records for the image data.
The format will be used for future domain types (such as on ARM).
The specification is pandoc format (an extended markdown format) and the
documentation build system is extended to support pandoc format documents.

For top-level targets which use more than a single program to produce content
(txt already, pdf once pandoc is supported), these current checks are
unsuitable.
By moving the the install checks to the rules which actually use the programs,
it is now possible to build a subset of a top-level target depending on the
installed programs.
As a bonus, it removes the need to recurse for txt, man-pages and pdf targets.
A side effect of this is that every individual source which cannot be
generated will have a specific message logged, giving the file and program.
As such, these message are updated to consistently report the target file
which was not generated.
Finally, update "ifdef foo" to "ifneq($(foo),)" to be more resilient to errors
caused by having foo defined as an empty string.

When a device is marked for passthrough (via the new property
"xen,passthrough"), dom0 must not access to the device (i.e not
loading a driver), but should be able to manage the MMIO/interrupt
of the passthrough device.
The latter part will allow the toolstack to map MMIO/IRQ when a device
is pass through to a guest.
The property "xen,passthrough" will be translated as 'status="disabled"'
in the device tree to avoid DOM0 using the device. We assume that DOM0 is
able to cope with this property (already the case for Linux, and
required by ePAPR).
Rework the function map_device (renamed into handle_device) to:
* For a given device node:
- Give permission to manage IRQ/MMIO for this device
- Retrieve the IRQ configuration (i.e edge/level) from the device
tree
* When the device is not marked for guest passthrough:
- Assign the device to the guest if it's protected by an IOMMU
- Map the IRQs and MMIOs regions to the guest

switch, i.e., "4-8" or "node:1,12-18,^14".
This make things more flexible, more consistent, and also

disabled - revert to dummy (no XSM) policy. Was flask_enabled=0
late - bootloader policy is not used; later loadpolicy is enforcing
The default mode remains "permissive" and the flask_enforcing boot
parameter is retained for compatibility. If flask_enforcing=1 is

enforcing mode if present, but errors will disable access controls until
