This patch adds a command line option in xl to exit right after domain
creation and not wait in background for the death of the domain.
Users should be aware that if they use this option, they always have
to destroy the domain manually after the guest shuts down.

This defines how multiple modules can be passed to a domain by packing
them together into a "multiboot module" in a way very similar to the
multiboot standard. An SIF_ flag is added to announce such package.
This also adds a packing implementation to PV-GRUB.

BUG_ON(d->is_dying) in p2m_pod_cache_add() which is introduced in
c/s 20426 is not proper. Since dom->is_dying is set asynchronously.
For example, MMU_UPDATE hypercalls from qemu and the
DOMCTL_destroydomain hypercall from xend can be issued simultaneously.
Also this patch lets p2m_pod_empty_cache() wait by spin_barrier
until another PoD operation ceases.

The 'continue' in the if() part of the conditional at the end of
p2m_pod_zero_check() was causing this, but there also really is no
point in retaining the mapping after having checked page contents,
so fix it both ways. Additionally there is no point in updating
map[] at this point anymore.

When a single domain is using most/all of tmem memory
for ephemeral pages belonging to the same object, e.g.
when copying a single huge file larger than ephemeral
memory, long lists are traversed looking for a page to
evict that doesn't belong to this object (as pages in
the object for which a page is currently being inserted
are locked and cannot be evicted). This is essentially
a livelock.
Avoid this by proactively ensuring there is a margin
of available memory (1MB) before locks are taken on
the object.

This patch adds a target_memkb parameter to libxl_domain_build_info to
set the target memory for the VM at build time and a new function
called libxl_set_memory_target to dynamically modify the memory target
of a VM at run time. Finally a new command "mem-set" is added to xl
that calls directly libxl_set_memory_target.

Currently xen hypervisor use nodes to keep start/end address of
node. It assume memory among nodes has no overlap, this is not always
true, especially if we have memory hotplug support in the system.
This patch backport Linux kernel's memblks to support overlapping
among node. The memblks will be used both for checking conflict, and
caculate memnode_shift.
Also, currently if there is no memory populated in a node when system
booting, the node will be unparsed later, and the corresponding CPU's
numa information will be removed also. This patch will keep the CPU
information.
One thing need notice is, currently we caculate memnode_shift with all
memory, including un-populated ones. This should work if the smallest
chuck is not so small. Other option can be flags in the page_info
structure, etc.
The memnodemap is changed from paddr to pdx, both to save space, and
also because currently most access is from pfn.
A flag is mem_hotplug added if there is hotplug memory range.

Trying to fix a livelock condition in tmem that occurs
only when the system is totally out of memory requires
the ability to easily determine if all zones in all
nodes are empty, and this must be checked at a fairly
high frequency. So to avoid walking all the zones in
all the nodes each time, I'd like a fast way to determine
if "free_pages" is zero. This patch tracks the sum
of the free pages in all nodes/zones. Since I think
the value is modified only when heap_lock is held,
it need not be atomic.
I don't know this for sure, but suspect this will be
useful in other future memory utilization code, e.g.
page sharing.
This has had limited testing, though I did drive free
memory down to zero and up and down a few times with
debug on and no asserts were triggered.

Currently, xen uses shared iommu domain-id across all the VT-d units
in the platform. The number of iommu domain-ids (NR_DID, e.g. 256)
supported by each VT-d unit is reported in Capability register. The
limitation of current implementation is it only can support at most
NR_DID domains with VT-d in the entire platform, even though the
platform can support N * NR_DID (where N is the number of VT-d
units). Imagine a platform with several SR_IOV NICs, and each NIC
supports 128 VFs. It possibly beyond the NR_DID.
This patch implements iommu domain-id management per iommu (VT-d
unit), hence solves above limitation. It removes the global domain-id
bitmap, instead use domain-id bitmap in struct iommu, and also involve
an array to map guest domain-id and iommu domain-id, which is used to
iommu domain-id when flush context cache or IOTLB. When a device is
assigned to a guest, choose an available iommu domain-id from the
device's iommu, and map guest domain id to the domain-id mapping
array. When a device is deassigned from a guest, clear the domain-id
bit in domain-id bitmap and clear the corresponding entry in domain-id
map array if there is no other devices under the same iommu owned by
the guest.

Initial tsc_mode patch contained a rough cut at pvrdtscp mode. This
patch gets it working correctly. For the record, pvrdtscp mode allows
an application to obtain information from Xen to descale/de-offset
a physical tsc value to obtain "nsec since VM start". Though the
raw tsc value may change across migration due to different Hz rates
and different start times of different physical machines, applying
the pvrdtscp algorithm to a raw tsc value guarantees that the result
will always be both a fixed known rate (nanoseconds) and monotonically
increasing. BUT, pvrdtscp will only be fast on physical machines that
support the rdtscp instruction AND on which tsc is "safe"; on other
machines both the rdtsc and rdtscp instructions will be emulated.
Also note that when tsc_mode=3 is enabled, tsc-sensitive applications
that do NOT implement the pvrdtscp algorithm will behave incorrectly.
So, tsc_mode=3 should only be used when all apps are either
tsc-resilient
or pvrdtscp-modified, and only has a performance advantage on very
recent generation processors.

Contemplate a memory space slack for PV domains,
since they do ballooning (or flipping network rx)
and need some extra room in their pfn space.
Note that this does not allocate any extra memory
to the domain, it simply extends the physmap with
some extra room for "bounce bufffering back" pfn's
that are yielded to dom0.
The default slack is set at 8MB.

In above c/s I introduced dom0 statistics for case we use network
bonding. The indentation was not good for xenstat C codebase and also
some modifications were done to the logic, mainly not using the parsed
variables we don't care about (as we care only about
{tx|rx}{bytes,packets,errs,drops} and no other variable from
/proc/net/dev) by passing NULLs to variables we don't care about. Also
dom0 statistics alteration was fixed to include {tx|rx}{drop,errs} for
