* xen/xenbus: Add quirk to deal with misconfigured backends.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk2012-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A rather annoying and common case is when booting a PVonHVM guest and exposing the PV KBD and PV VFB - as broken toolstacks don't always initialize the backends correctly. Normally The HVM guest is using the VGA driver and the emulated keyboard for this (though upstream version of QEMU implements PV KBD, but still uses a VGA driver). We provide a very basic two-stage wait mechanism - where we wait for 30 seconds for all devices, and then for 270 for all them except the two mentioned. That allows us to wait for the essential devices, like network or disk for the full 6 minutes. To trigger this, put this in your guest config: vfb = [ 'vnc=1, vnclisten=0.0.0.0 ,vncunused=1'] instead of this: vnc=1 vnclisten="0.0.0.0" CC: stable@kernel.org Acked-by: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@eu.citrix.com> [v3: Split delay in non-essential (30 seconds) and essential devices per Ian and Stefano suggestion] [v4: Added comments per Stefano suggestion] Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>
* xen/xenbus: ignore console/0Stefano Stabellini2012-03-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unfortunately xend creates a bogus console/0 frotend/backend entry pair on xenstore that console backends cannot properly cope with. Any guest behavior that is not completely ignoring console/0 is going to either cause problems with xenconsoled or qemu. Returning 0 or -ENODEV from xencons_probe is not enough because it is going to cause the frontend state to become 4 or 6 respectively. The best possible thing we can do here is just ignore the entry from xenbus_probe_frontend.

* Xen: consolidate and simplify struct xenbus_driver instantiationJan Beulich2012-01-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 'name', 'owner', and 'mod_name' members are redundant with the identically named fields in the 'driver' sub-structure. Rather than switching each instance to specify these fields explicitly, introduce a macro to simplify this. Eliminate further redundancy by allowing the drvname argument to DEFINE_XENBUS_DRIVER() to be blank (in which case the first entry from the ID table will be used for .driver.name). Also eliminate the questionable xenbus_register_{back,front}end() wrappers - their sole remaining purpose was the checking of the 'owner' field, proper setting of which shouldn't be an issue anymore when the macro gets used. v2: Restore DRV_NAME for the driver name in xen-pciback.

| * | xen/pv-on-hvm kexec+kdump: reset PV devices in kexec or crash kernelOlaf Hering2011-09-01
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After triggering a crash dump in a HVM guest, the PV backend drivers will remain in Connected state. When the kdump kernel starts the PV drivers will skip such devices. As a result, no root device is found and the vmcore cant be saved. A similar situation happens after a kexec boot, here the devices will be in the Closed state. With this change all frontend devices with state XenbusStateConnected or XenbusStateClosed will be reset by changing the state file to Closing -> Closed -> Initializing. This will trigger a disconnect in the backend drivers. Now the frontend drivers will find the backend drivers in state Initwait and can connect.

* / xen: Populate xenbus device attributesBastian Blank2011-06-30
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | The xenbus bus type uses device_create_file to assign all used device attributes. However it does not remove them when the device goes away.

* xen: use freeze/restore/thaw PM events for suspend/resume/chkptShriram Rajagopalan2011-03-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use PM_FREEZE, PM_THAW and PM_RESTORE power events for suspend/resume/checkpoint functionality, instead of PM_SUSPEND and PM_RESUME. Use of these pm events fixes the Xen Guest hangup when taking checkpoints. When a suspend event is cancelled (while taking checkpoints once/continuously), we use PM_THAW instead of PM_RESUME. PM_RESTORE is used when suspend is not cancelled. See Documentation/power/devices.txt and linux/pm.h for more info about freeze, thaw and restore. The sequence of pm events in a suspend-resume scenario is shown below. dpm_suspend_start(PMSG_FREEZE); dpm_suspend_noirq(PMSG_FREEZE); sysdev_suspend(PMSG_FREEZE); cancelled = suspend_hypercall() sysdev_resume(); dpm_resume_noirq(cancelled ? PMSG_THAW : PMSG_RESTORE); dpm_resume_end(cancelled ? PMSG_THAW : PMSG_RESTORE); Acked-by: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Shriram Rajagopalan <rshriram@cs.ubc.ca> Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>
