At the moment, *copy_to_guest_offset() will allow the hypervisor to copy
data to guest handle marked const.
Thankfully, no users of the helper will do that. Rather than hoping this
can be caught during review, harden copy_to_guest_offset() so the build
will fail if such users are introduced.
There is no easy way to check whether a const is NULL in C99. The
approach used is to introduce an unused variable that is non-const and
assign the handle. If the handle were const, this would fail at build
because without an explicit cast, it is not possible to assign a const
variable to a non-const variable.

When resetting a VM fork we ought to only remove pages that were allocated for
the fork during it's execution and the contents copied over from the parent.
This can be determined if the page is sharable as special pages used by the
fork for other purposes will not pass this test. Unfortunately during the fork
reset loop we only partially check whether that's the case. A page's type may
indicate it is sharable (pass p2m_is_sharable) but that's not a sufficient
check by itself. All checks that are normally performed before a page is
converted to the sharable type need to be performed to avoid removing pages
from the p2m that may be used for other purposes. For example, currently the
reset loop also removes the vcpu info pages from the p2m, potentially putting
the guest into infinite page-fault loops.

This patch start to use if_changed introduced in a previous commit.
Whenever if_changed is called, the target must have FORCE as
dependency so that if_changed can check if the command line to be
run has changed, so the macro $(real-prereqs) must be used to
discover the dependencies without "FORCE".
Whenever a target isn't in obj-y, it should be added to extra-y so the
.*.cmd dependency file associated with the target can be loaded. This
is done for xsm/flask/ and both common/lib{elf,fdt}/ and
arch/x86/Makefile.
For the targets that generate .*.d dependency files, there's going to
be two dependency files (.*.d and .*.cmd) until we can merge them
together in a later patch via fixdep from Linux.

The if_changed macro from Linux, in addition to check if any files
needs an update, check if the command line has changed since the last
invocation. The latter will force a rebuild if any options to the
executable have changed.
if_changed_rule checks dependencies like if_changed, but execute
rule_$(1) instead of cmd_$(1) when a target needs to be rebuilt. A rule_
macro can call more than one cmd_ macro. One of the cmd_ macro in a
rule need to be call using a macro that record the command line, so
cmd_and_record is introduced. It is similar to cmd_and_fixup from
Linux but without a call to fixdep which we don't have yet. (We will
later replace cmd_and_record by cmd_and_fixup.)
Example of a rule_ macro:
define rule_cc_o_c
$(call cmd_and_record,cc_o_o)
$(call cmd,objcopy)
endef
This needs one of the call to use cmd_and_record, otherwise no .*.cmd
file will be created, and the target will keep been rebuilt.
In order for if_changed to works correctly, we need to load the .%.cmd
files that the macro generates, this is done by adding targets in to
the $(targets) variable. We use intermediate_targets to add %.init.o
dependency %.o to target since there aren't in obj-y.
We also add $(MAKECMDGOALS) to targets so that when running for
example `make common/memory.i`, make will load the associated .%.cmd
dependency file.
Beside the if_changed*, we import the machinery used for a "beautify
output". The important one is when running make with V=2 which help to
debug the makefiles by printing why a target is been rebuilt, via the
$(echo-why) macro.
if_changed and if_changed_rule aren't used yet.

Instead of generating the CFLAGS in Rules.mk everytime we enter a new
subdirectory, we are going to generate most of them a single time, and
export the result in the environment so that Rules.mk can use it. The
only flags left to be generated are the ones that depend on the
targets, but the variable $(c_flags) takes care of that.
Arch specific CFLAGS are generated by a new file "arch/*/arch.mk"
which is included by the root Makefile.
We export the *FLAGS via the environment variables XEN_*FLAGS because
Rules.mk still includes Config.mk and would add duplicated flags to
CFLAGS.
When running Rules.mk in the root directory (xen/), the variable
`root-make-done' is set, so `need-config' will remain undef and so the
root Makefile will not generate the cflags again.
We can't use CFLAGS in subdirectories to add flags to particular
targets, instead start to use CFLAGS-y. Idem for AFLAGS.
So there are two different CFLAGS-y, the one in xen/Makefile (and
arch.mk), and the one in subdirs that Rules.mk is going to use.
We can't add to XEN_CFLAGS because it is exported, so making change to
it might be propagated to subdirectory which isn't intended.
Some style change are introduced in this patch:
when LDFLAGS_DIRECT is included in LDFLAGS
use of CFLAGS-$(CONFIG_INDIRECT_THUNK) instead of ifeq().
The LTO change hasn't been tested properly, as LTO is marked as

libxl forks external processes and waits for them to complete; it

In absence of instructions to the contrary, libxl sets up its own

Golang always unmasks and handles SIGCHLD itself. libxl thankfully
notices this and throws an assert() rather than clobbering SIGCHLD
handlers.
Tell libxl that we'll be responsible for getting SIGCHLD notifications
to it. Arrange for a channel in the context to receive notifications
on SIGCHLD, and set up a goroutine that will pass these on to libxl.
NB that every libxl context needs a notification; so multiple contexts
will each spin up their own goroutine when opening a context, and shut
it down on close.
libxl also wants to hold on to a const pointer to
xenlight_childproc_hooks rather than do a copy; so make a global

The memory sharing subsystem by default doesn't allow a domain to share memory
if it has an IOMMU active for obvious security reasons. However, when fuzzing a
VM fork, the same security restrictions don't necessarily apply. While it makes
no sense to try to create a full fork of a VM that has an IOMMU attached as only
one domain can own the pass-through device at a time, creating a shallow fork
without a device model is still very useful for fuzzing kernel-mode drivers.
By allowing the parent VM to initialize the kernel-mode driver with a real
device that's pass-through, the driver can enter into a state more suitable for
fuzzing. Some of these initialization steps are quite complex and are easier to
perform when a real device is present. After the initialization, shallow forks
can be utilized for fuzzing code-segments in the device driver that don't
directly interact with the device.

In a later patch ("xen/build: have the root Makefile generates the

it and have Rules.mk use a CFLAGS from the environment variables. That
changes the flavor of the CFLAGS and flags intended for one target
(like -D__OBJECT_FILE__ and -M%) gets propagated and duplicated. So we
start by moving such flags out of $(CFLAGS) and into $(c_flags) which
is to be modified by only Rules.mk.
__OBJECT_FILE__ is only used by arch/x86/mm/*.c files, so having it in
$(c_flags) is enough, we don't need it in $(a_flags).
For include/Makefile and as-insn we can keep using CFLAGS, but since
it doesn't have -M* flags anymore there is no need to filter them out.
The XEN_BUILD_EFI tests in arch/x86/Makefile was filtering out
CFLAGS-y, but according to dd40177c1b ("x86-64/EFI: add CFLAGS to
check compile"), it was done to filter out -MF. CFLAGS doesn't
have those flags anymore, so no filtering is needed.

Before including "config/auto.conf" we check which make target a user

missing).
root-make-done is to avoid doing the calculation again once Rules.mk
takes over and is been executed with the root Makefile. When Rules.mk
is including xen/Makefile, `config-build' and `need-config' are
undefined so auto.conf will not be included again (it is already
included by Rules.mk) and kconfig target are out of reach of Rules.mk.
We are introducing a target %config to catch all targets for kconfig.
So we need an extra target %/.config to prevent make from trying to
regenerate $(XEN_ROOT)/.config that is included in Config.mk.
The way targets are filtered is inspired by Kbuild, with some code
imported from Linux. That's why there is PHONY variable that isn't

Introduce a cache to make sure above described assumption holds. This
is a very simplistic implementation for now: Only exact matches are
satisfied (no overlaps or partial reads or anything); this is sufficient
for the immediate purpose of making re-execution an exact replay. The
cache also won't be used just yet for guest page walks; that'll be the
subject of a subsequent change.
With the cache being generally transparent to upper layers, but with it
having limited capacity yet being required for correctness, certain
users of hvm_copy_from_guest_*() need to disable caching temporarily,
without invalidating the cache. Note that the adjustments here to
hvm_hypercall() and hvm_task_switch() are benign at this point; they'll
become relevant once we start to be able to emulate respective insns
through the main emulator (and more changes will then likely be needed
to nested code).
As to the actual data page in a problamtic scenario, there are a couple
of aspects to take into consideration:
- We must be talking about an insn accessing two locations (two memory
ones, one of which is MMIO, or a memory and an I/O one).
- If the non I/O / MMIO side is being read, the re-read (if it occurs at
all) is having its result discarded, by taking the shortcut through
the first switch()'s STATE_IORESP_READY case in hvmemul_do_io(). Note
how, among all the re-issue sanity checks there, we avoid comparing
the actual data.
- If the non I/O / MMIO side is being written, it is the OSes
responsibility to avoid actually moving page contents to disk while
there might still be a write access in flight - this is no different
in behavior from bare hardware.
- Read-modify-write accesses are, as always, complicated, and while we
deal with them better nowadays than we did in the past, we're still
not quite there to guarantee hardware like behavior in all cases
anyway. Nothing is getting worse by the changes made here, afaict.
In __hvm_copy() also reduce p's scope and change its type to void *.

Re-execution (after having received data from a device model) relies on
the same register state still being in place as it was when the request
was first sent to the device model. Therefore vCPU state changes
effected by remote sources need to result in no attempt of re-execution.
Instead the returned data is to simply be ignored.
Note that any such asynchronous state changes happen with the vCPU at
least paused (potentially down and/or not marked ->is_initialised), so
there's no issue with fiddling with register state behind the actively
running emulator's back. Hence the new function doesn't need to
synchronize with the core emulation logic.

The main use in Xen code base is when a new string is allocated. The

caml_alloc_initialized_string() but it was introduced by OCaml 4.06.1.
The next best approach is to cast String_val() to (char *) as the helper
would have done. So use it when we need to update the new string using
memcpy().
Take the opportunity to remove the unnecessary cast of the source as
mempcy() is expecting a void *.

While the underlying structure is the same between string and bytes, a
string is meant to be immutable. OCaml 4.06.1 and later will enforce it.
Therefore, it will not be possible to build the OCaml libs when using

To avoid plain cast in the code, the code is now switched to use
Bytes_val(). As the macro is not defined in older OCaml version, we need

In core-scheduling mode, Xen might crash when entering ACPI S5 state.
This happens in sched_slave() during is_idle_unit(next) check because
next->vcpu_list is stale and points to an already freed memory.
This situation happens shortly after scheduler_disable() is called if
some CPU is still inside sched_slave() softirq. Current logic simply
returns prev->next_task from sched_wait_rendezvous_in() which causes
the described crash because next_task->vcpu_list has become invalid.
Fix the crash by returning NULL from sched_wait_rendezvous_in() in
the case when scheduler_disable() has been called.

For each UNIT, sched_set_affinity is called before unit->priv is updated
to the new cpupool private UNIT data structure. The issue is
sched_set_affinity will call the adjust_affinity method of the cpupool.
If defined, the new cpupool may use unit->priv (e.g. credit), which at
this point still references the old cpupool private UNIT data structure.
This change fixes the bug by moving the switch of unit->priv earler in
the function.
