Sorry for the delay between this version and the last -- it was mostly due to holidays and everyone being focused on security bug mitigation issues. Here are the links to the previous email threads in case it is helpful: V3: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/12/12/1230 V2: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/12/7/1624 V1: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/28/1280 Changes from v3: * Implemented Juergen's suggestion for refactoring and moving the PVH code so that CONFIG_XEN is no longer required for booting KVM guests via the PVH entry point. Functionally, nothing has changed from V3 really, but the patches look completely different now because of all the code movement and refactoring. Some of these patches can be combined, but I've left them very small in some cases to make the refactoring and code movement easier to review. My approach for refactoring has been to create a PVH entry layer that still has understanding and knowledge about Xen vs non-Xen guest types so that it can make run time decisions to handle either case, as opposed to going all the way and re-writing it to be a completely hypervisor agnostic and architecturally pure layer that is separate from guest type details. The latter seemed a bit overkill in this situation. And I've handled the complexity of having to support Qemu/KVM boot of kernels compiled with or without CONFIG_XEN via a pair of xen specific __weak routines that can be overridden in kernels that support Xen guests. Importantly, the __weak routines are for xen specific code only (not generic "guest type" specific code) so there is no clashing between xen version of the strong routine and, say, a KVM version of the same routine. But I'm sure there are many ways to skin this cat, so I'm open to alternate suggestions if there is a compelling reason for not using __weak in this situation. Changes from v2: * All structures (including memory map table entries) are padded and aligned to an 8 byte boundary. * Removed the "packed" attributes and made changes to comments as suggested by Jan. Changes from v1: * Adopted Paolo's suggestion for defining a v2 PVH ABI that includes the e820 map instead of using the second module entry to pass the table. * Cleaned things up a bit to reduce the number of xen vs non-xen special cases.
