* xen: Add xen_create_contiguous_regionAlex Nixon2010-06-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A memory region must be physically contiguous in order to be accessed through DMA. This patch adds xen_create_contiguous_region, which ensures a region of contiguous virtual memory is also physically contiguous. Based on Stephen Tweedie's port of the 2.6.18-xen version. Remove contiguous_bitmap[] as it's no longer needed.

* xen: Rename the balloon lockAlex Nixon2010-06-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | * xen_create_contiguous_region needs access to the balloon lock to ensure memory doesn't change under its feet, so expose the balloon lock * Change the name of the lock to xen_reservation_lock, to imply it's now less-specific usage.

* xen: add missing definitions in include/xen/interface/memory.h which ↵Isaku Yamahata2008-05-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | ia64/xen needs Add xen handles realted definitions for xen memory which ia64/xen needs. Pointer argumsnts for ia64/xen hypercall are passed in pseudo physical address (guest physical address) so that it is required to convert guest kernel virtual address into pseudo physical address. The xen guest handle represents such arguments.

* 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.

* xen: Add Xen interface header filesJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-07-18
Add Xen interface header files. These are taken fairly directly from the Xen tree, but somewhat rearranged to suit the kernel's conventions. Define macros and inline functions for doing hypercalls into the hypervisor.
