* xen: move events.c to drivers/xen for IA64/Xen supportIsaku Yamahata2008-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | move arch/x86/xen/events.c undedr drivers/xen to share codes with x86 and ia64. And minor adjustment to compile. ia64/xen also uses events.c Signed-off-by: Yaozu (Eddie) Dong <eddie.dong@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Isaku Yamahata <yamahata@valinux.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
* xen: implement a debug-interrupt handlerJeremy Fitzhardinge2008-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | Xen supports the notion of a debug interrupt which can be triggered from the console. For now this is implemented to show pending events, masks and each CPU's pending event set.

* xen: support sysenter/sysexit if hypervisor doesJeremy Fitzhardinge2008-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | 64-bit Xen supports sysenter for 32-bit guests, so support its use. (sysenter is faster than int $0x80 in 32-on-64.) sysexit is still not supported, so we fake it up using iret.

* xen: deal with stale cr3 values when unpinning pagetablesJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a pagetable is no longer in use, it must be unpinned so that its pages can be freed. However, this is only possible if there are no stray uses of the pagetable. The code currently deals with all the usual cases, but there's a rare case where a vcpu is changing cr3, but is doing so lazily, and the change hasn't actually happened by the time the pagetable is unpinned, even though it appears to have been completed. This change adds a second per-cpu cr3 variable - xen_current_cr3 - which tracks the actual state of the vcpu cr3. It is only updated once the actual hypercall to set cr3 has been completed. Other processors wishing to unpin a pagetable can check other vcpu's xen_current_cr3 values to see if any cross-cpu IPIs are needed to clean things up.

* paravirt: clean up lazy mode handlingJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the set_lazy_mode pv_op is overloaded with 5 functions: 1. enter lazy cpu mode 2. leave lazy cpu mode 3. enter lazy mmu mode 4. leave lazy mmu mode 5. flush pending batched operations This complicates each paravirt backend, since it needs to deal with all the possible state transitions, handling flushing, etc. In particular, flushing is quite distinct from the other 4 functions, and seems to just cause complication. This patch removes the set_lazy_mode operation, and adds "enter" and "leave" lazy mode operations on mmu_ops and cpu_ops. All the logic associated with enter and leaving lazy states is now in common code (basically BUG_ONs to make sure that no mode is current when entering a lazy mode, and make sure that the mode is current when leaving). Also, flush is handled in a common way, by simply leaving and re-entering the lazy mode. The result is that the Xen, lguest and VMI lazy mode implementations are much simpler.
