During the review of the patches it was noticed that there exists a race wherein the 'free_memory' value consists of information from two hypercalls. That is the XEN_SYSCTL_physinfo and XENMEM_get_outstanding_pages. The free memory the host has available for guest is the difference between the 'free_pages' (from XEN_SYSCTL_physinfo) and 'outstanding_pages'. As they are two hypercalls many things can happen in between the execution of them. This patch resolves this by eliminating the XENMEM_get_outstanding_pages hypercall and providing the free_pages and outstanding_pages information via the xc_phys_info structure. It also removes the XSM hooks and adds locking as needed.
