1/*
2 * Xen hypercall batching.
3 *
4 * Xen allows multiple hypercalls to be issued at once, using the
5 * multicall interface. This allows the cost of trapping into the
6 * hypervisor to be amortized over several calls.
7 *
8 * This file implements a simple interface for multicalls. There's a
9 * per-cpu buffer of outstanding multicalls. When you want to queue a
10 * multicall for issuing, you can allocate a multicall slot for the
11 * call and its arguments, along with storage for space which is
12 * pointed to by the arguments (for passing pointers to structures,
13 * etc). When the multicall is actually issued, all the space for the
14 * commands and allocated memory is freed for reuse.
15 *
16 * Multicalls are flushed whenever any of the buffers get full, or
17 * when explicitly requested. There's no way to get per-multicall
18 * return results back. It will BUG if any of the multicalls fail.
19 *
