Juergen Gross c427829d0e tools/xenstored: add GLOBAL_QUOTA_DATA record for live update
Communicate the global quota settings via the GLOBAL_QUOTA_DATA
record to the new Xenstore instance.

This avoids to lose global quota settings done via xenstore-control.

In theory it would be possible to drop any quota related command line
parameters in the live update case, but they don't do any harm, as
the record data is applied on top of the command line data.

For soft-quota just prepend "soft-" to the quota name.

Use sub-functions for building and analyzing the quota part of the
migration stream, as they will be reused for per-domain quotas.

Juergen Gross 4c61822b04 tools/xenstored: fix canonicalize() error testing
The setting of errno in canonicalize() is rather fragile and seems to
be even wrong in one corner case: when the invalid path "/local/domain/"
is passed, sscanf() will set errno to 0, resulting in canonicalize() to
return NULL with errno being 0. This can result in triggering the
assert(conn->in == NULL) in consider_message().

Don't assume the initial setting of errno to "EINVAL" will stay valid
in all cases and set it to EINVAL only when returning NULL due to an
invalid path.

This is XSA-481/CVE-2026-23555

There is a possible race scenario between set_global_virq_handler()
and clear_global_virq_handlers() targeting the same domain, which
might result in that domain ending as a zombie domain.

In case set_global_virq_handler() is being called for a domain which
is just dying, it might happen that clear_global_virq_handlers() is
running first, resulting in set_global_virq_handler() taking a new
reference for that domain and entering in the global_virq_handlers[]
array afterwards. The reference will never be dropped, thus the domain
will never be freed completely.

This can be fixed by checking the is_dying state of the domain inside
the region guarded by global_virq_handlers_lock. In case the domain is
dying, handle it as if the domain wouldn't exist, which will be the
case in near future anyway.

Juergen Gross c66c134175 stubdom: explcitly add libc and lwip Mini-OS config options
Today the Mini-OS build systems derives libc and lwip config options
from the stubdom and LWIPDIR make variables supplied by the Xen build
system.

In order to prepare those being explicit Mini-OS config options, add
them to the related stubdom Mini-OS config files.

While at it remove the CONFIG_START_NETWORK setting from config files
disabling lwip, as CONFIG_START_NETWORK requires lwip for becoming
effective.
