* xen: make sysfs files behave as their names suggestJeremy Fitzhardinge2009-01-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1: make "target_kb" only accept and produce a memory size in kilobytes. 2: add a second "target" file which produces output in bytes, and will accept memparse input (scaled bytes) This fixes the rather irritating problem that writing the same value read back into target_kb would end up shrinking the domain by a factor of 1024, with generally bad results.

* xen: handle highmem pages correctly when shrinking a domainIan Campbell2009-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 1058a75f07b9bb8323fb5197be5526220f8b75cf ("xen: actually release memory when shrinking domain") causes a crash if the page being released is a highmem page. If a page is highmem then there is no need to unmap it.

* xen: clean up asm/xen/hypervisor.hJeremy Fitzhardinge2008-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | Impact: cleanup hypervisor.h had accumulated a lot of crud, including lots of spurious #includes. Clean it all up, and go around fixing up everything else accordingly.

* xen: fix scrub_page()Jeremy Fitzhardinge2008-11-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fix guest kernel crash with CONFIG_XEN_SCRUB_PAGES=y Jens noticed that scrub_page() has a buggy unmap of the wrong thing. (virtual address instead of page) Linus pointed out that the whole scrub_page() code is an unnecessary reimplementation of clear_highpage() to begin with. Just use clear_highpage() rather than reimplementing it poorly.

* xen: remove unused balloon.hJeremy Fitzhardinge2008-10-03
| | | | | | | | | The balloon driver doesn't have any externally callable functions at the moment, so remove the (effectively empty) header. We can add it back if we need to. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* xen: clean up domain mode predicatesJeremy Fitzhardinge2008-08-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are four operating modes Xen code may find itself running in: - native - hvm domain - pv dom0 - pv domU Clean up predicates for testing for these states to make them more consistent.

* sysdev: Pass the attribute to the low level sysdev show/store functionAndi Kleen2008-07-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allow to dynamically generate attributes and share show/store functions between attributes. Right now most attributes are generated by special macros and lots of duplicated code. With the attribute passed it's instead possible to attach some data to the attribute and then use that in shared low level functions to do different things. I need this for the dynamically generated bank attributes in the x86 machine check code, but it'll allow some further cleanups. I converted all users in tree to the new show/store prototype. It's a single huge patch to avoid unbisectable sections.

* xen: compilation fix to balloon driver for ia64 supportIsaku Yamahata2008-05-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fix compilation error of ballon driver on ia64. extent_start member is pointer argument. On x86 pointer argument for xen hypercall is passed as virtual address. On the other hand, ia64 and ppc, pointer argument is passed in pseudo physical address. (guest physicall address.) So they must be passed as handle and convert right before issuing hypercall.

* xen: add balloon driverJeremy Fitzhardinge2008-04-24
The balloon driver allows memory to be dynamically added or removed from the domain, in order to allow host memory to be balanced between multiple domains. This patch introduces the Xen balloon driver, though it currently only allows a domain to be shrunk from its initial size (and re-grown back to that size). A later patch will add the ability to grow a domain beyond its initial size.
