I'm seeing pvgrub crashing when running CTORs. It appears its because
the magic in the linker script is generating junk. If I get ld to
output a map, I see:
.ctors 0x0000000000097000 0x18
0x0000000000097000 __CTOR_LIST__ = .
0x0000000000097000 0x4 LONG 0x25c04
(((__CTOR_END__ - __CTOR_LIST__) / 0x4) - 0x2)
*(.ctors)
.ctors 0x0000000000097004 0x10
/home/jeremy/hg/xen/unstable/stubdom/mini-os-x86_32-grub/mini-os.o
0x0000000000097014 0x4 LONG 0x0
0x0000000000097018 __CTOR_END__ = .
In other words, somehow ((0x97018-0x97000) / 4) - 2 = 0x25c04
The specific crash is that the ctor loop tries to call the NULL
sentinel. I'm seeing the same with the DTOR list.
Avoid this by terminating the loop with the NULL sentinel, and get rid
of the CTOR count entirely.

In the efforts to clarify MiniOS license it came to my attention that
few portions of MiniOS were taken from other GPL projects, one of them
is the mktime implementation. This patch replaces the current GPL
licensed mktime implementation with a different and BSD licensed
version.

This patch removes all the useless big endian stuff from the mini-os.
Before there was an effort to support big endian for PV-guest.
But the big endian support was never gotten into the common parts of
the mini-os so it makes no sense to have this only in the ia64
specific sources. And as there is no open source big endian os and
porting our BS2000 os to ia64 was stopped, nobody wants that stuff
in the common minos.
So this looks ugly then and remove the big endian stuff.

This makes stubdom use the host's gcc instead of downloading/compiling

This fetches GRUB1 sources, applies the {graphical, print function,
save default, and ext3_256byte} patches from debian, and applies a
patch to make it work on x86_64 and port it to Mini-OS. By using
libxc, PV-GRUB can then "kexec" the loaded kernel from inside the
domain itself, hence permitting to avoid the security-concerned
pygrub.

To ensure that the timer event is not lost, block_domain requires that
event delivery is disabled. SCHEDOP_block re-enables them, so for
coherency (and fixing a bug actually), we should re-disable them
after. Also, make sure that the caller disabled them.

evtchn_bind_interdomain used to clear any already pending event before
binding a handler, because else the handler may be called before it is
ready. That however leads to missed events, which I had to workaround
for the HVM case.
This changes the semantics of bind_evtchn, and thus of all the
event channel binding functions (bind_virq, evtchn_alloc_unbound,
evtchn_bind_interdomain) into not unmasking the event itself, hence
letting the caller initialize properly before unmasking the port (e.g.
record the port number in an appropriate place).

- Move PAGE_SIZE and STACK_SIZE into __PAGE_SIZE and __STACK_SIZE in
arch_limits.h so as to permit getting them from there without
pulling all the internal Mini-OS defines.
- Setup a xen-elf cross-compilation environment in stubdom/cross-root
- Add a POSIX layer on top of Mini-OS by linking against the newlib C
library and lwIP, and implementing the Unixish part in mini-os/lib/sys.c
- Cross-compile zlib and libpci too.
- Add an xs.h-compatible layer on top of Mini-OS' xenbus.
- Cross-compile libxc with an additional xc_minios.c and a few things
disabled.
- Cross-compile ioemu with an additional block-vbd, but without sound,
tpm and other details. A few hacks are needed:
- Align ide and scsi buffers at least on sector size to permit
direct transmission to the block backend. While we are at it, just
page-align it to possibly save a segment. Also, limit the scsi
buffer size because of limitations of the block paravirtualization
protocol.
- Allocate big tables dynamically rather that letting them go to
bss: when Mini-OS gets installed in memory, bss is not lazily
allocated, and doing so during Mini-OS is unnecessarily trick while
we can simply use malloc.
- Had to change the Mini-OS compilation somehow, so as to export
Mini-OS compilation flags to the Makefiles of libxc and ioemu.
