# Xenhypfs Paths
|
|
|
|
This document attempts to define all the paths which are available
|
|
in the Xen hypervisor file system (hypfs).
|
|
|
|
The hypervisor file system can be accessed via the xenhypfs tool.
|
|
|
|
## Notation
|
|
|
|
The hypervisor file system is similar to the Linux kernel's sysfs.
|
|
In this document directories are always specified with a trailing "/".
|
|
|
|
The following notation conventions apply:
|
|
|
|
DIRECTORY/
|
|
|
|
PATH = VALUES [TAGS]
|
|
|
|
The first syntax defines a directory. It normally contains related
|
|
entries and the general scope of the directory is described.
|
|
|
|
The second syntax defines a file entry containing values which are
|
|
either set by the hypervisor or, if the file is writable, can be set
|
|
by the user.
|
|
|
|
PATH can contain simple regex constructs following the Perl compatible
|
|
regexp syntax described in pcre(3) or perlre(1).
|
|
|
|
A hypervisor file system entry name can be any 0-delimited byte string
|
|
not containing any '/' character. The names "." and ".." are reserved
|
|
for file system internal use.
|
|
|
|
VALUES are strings and can take the following forms (note that this represents
|
|
only the syntax used in this document):
|
|
|
|
* STRING -- an arbitrary 0-delimited byte string.
|
|
* INTEGER -- An integer, in decimal representation unless otherwise
|
|
noted.
|
|
* "a literal string" -- literal strings are contained within quotes.
|
|
* (VALUE | VALUE | ... ) -- a set of alternatives. Alternatives are
|
|
separated by a "|" and all the alternatives are enclosed in "(" and
|
|
")".
|
|
* {VALUE, VALUE, ... } -- a list of possible values separated by "," and
|
|
enclosed in "{" and "}".
|
|
|
|
Additional TAGS may follow as a comma separated set of the following
|
|
tags enclosed in square brackets.
|
|
|
|
* w -- Path is writable by the user. This capability is usually
|
|
limited to the control domain (e.g. dom0).
|
|
* ARM | ARM32 | ARM64 | X86: the path is available for the respective
|
|
architecture only.
|
|
* PV -- Path is valid for PV capable hypervisors only.
|
|
* HVM -- Path is valid for HVM capable hypervisors only.
|
|
* CONFIG_* -- Path is valid only in case the hypervisor was built with
|
|
the respective config option.
|
|
|
|
So an entry could look like this:
|
|
|
|
/cpu-bugs/active-pv/xpti = ("No"|{"dom0", "domU", "PCID-on"}) [w,X86,PV]
|
|
|
|
Possible values would be "No" or a list of "dom0", "domU", and "PCID-on" with
|
|
the list elements separated by spaces, e.g. "dom0 PCID-on".
|
|
The entry would be writable and it would exist on X86 only and only if the
|
|
hypervisor is configured to support PV guests.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
A populated Xen hypervisor file system might look like the following example:
|
|
|
|
/
|
|
buildinfo/ directory containing build-time data
|
|
config contents of .config file used to build Xen
|
|
cpu-bugs/ x86: directory of cpu bug information
|
|
l1tf "Vulnerable" or "Not vulnerable"
|
|
mds "Vulnerable" or "Not vulnerable"
|
|
meltdown "Vulnerable" or "Not vulnerable"
|
|
spec-store-bypass "Vulnerable" or "Not vulnerable"
|
|
spectre-v1 "Vulnerable" or "Not vulnerable"
|
|
spectre-v2 "Vulnerable" or "Not vulnerable"
|
|
mitigations/ directory of mitigation settings
|
|
bti-thunk "N/A", "RETPOLINE", "LFENCE" or "JMP"
|
|
spec-ctrl "No", "IBRS+" or "IBRS-"
|
|
ibpb "No" or "Yes"
|
|
l1d-flush "No" or "Yes"
|
|
md-clear "No" or "VERW"
|
|
l1tf-barrier "No" or "Yes"
|
|
active-hvm/ directory for mitigations active in hvm doamins
|
|
msr-spec-ctrl "No" or "Yes"
|
|
rsb "No" or "Yes"
|
|
eager-fpu "No" or "Yes"
|
|
md-clear "No" or "Yes"
|
|
active-pv/ directory for mitigations active in pv doamins
|
|
msr-spec-ctrl "No" or "Yes"
|
|
rsb "No" or "Yes"
|
|
eager-fpu "No" or "Yes"
|
|
md-clear "No" or "Yes"
|
|
xpti "No" or list of "dom0", "domU", "PCID-on"
|
|
l1tf-shadow "No" or list of "dom0", "domU"
|
|
params/ directory with hypervisor parameter values
|
|
(boot/runtime parameters)
|
|
|
|
