[ Upstream commit 9074c79b62b6e0d91d7f716c6e4e9968eaf9e043 ]

While the hypervisor hasn't been enforcing this, we would still better
avoid issuing requests with GFNs not aligned to the requested order.
Instead of altering the value also in the call to panic(), drop it
there for being static and hence easy to determine without being part
of the panic message.

[ Upstream commit f28347cc66395e96712f5c2db0a302ee75bafce6 ]

While working on XSA-361 and its follow-ups, I failed to spot another
place where the kernel mapping part of an operation was not treated the
same as the user space part. Detect and propagate errors and add a 2nd
pr_debug().

commit 96f5bd03e1be606987644b71899ea56a8d05f825 upstream.

Commit 8480ed9c2bbd56 ("xen/balloon: use a kernel thread instead a
workqueue") switched the Xen balloon driver to use a kernel thread.
Unfortunately the patch omitted to call try_to_freeze() or to use
wait_event_freezable_timeout(), causing a system suspend to fail.

[ Upstream commit 8480ed9c2bbd56fc86524998e5f2e3e22f5038f6 ]

Today the Xen ballooning is done via delayed work in a workqueue. This
might result in workqueue hangups being reported in case of large
amounts of memory are being ballooned in one go (here 16GB):

BUG: workqueue lockup - pool cpus=6 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 stuck for 64s!
Showing busy workqueues and worker pools:
workqueue events: flags=0x0
  pwq 12: cpus=6 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=2/256 refcnt=3
    in-flight: 229:balloon_process
    pending: cache_reap
workqueue events_freezable_power_: flags=0x84
  pwq 12: cpus=6 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 active=1/256 refcnt=2

    pending: vmstat_update
pool 12: cpus=6 node=0 flags=0x0 nice=0 hung=64s workers=3 idle: 2222 43

This can easily be avoided by using a dedicated kernel thread for doing
the ballooning work.

commit 4c092c59015f7adf0f07685f869edb96d997a756 upstream.

The commit referenced below removed the assignment of "bytes" from
xen_swiotlb_init() without - like done for xen_swiotlb_init_early() -
adding an assignment on the retry path, thus leading to excessively
sized allocations upon retries.

There is a TOCTOU issue in set_evtchn_to_irq. Rows in the evtchn_to_irq
mapping are lazily allocated in this function. The check whether the row
is already present and the row initialization is not synchronized. Two
threads can at the same time allocate a new row for evtchn_to_irq and
add the irq mapping to the their newly allocated row. One thread will
overwrite what the other has set for evtchn_to_irq[row] and therefore
the irq mapping is lost. This will trigger a BUG_ON later in
bind_evtchn_to_cpu:

This patch sets evtchn_to_irq rows via a cmpxchg operation so that they
will be set only once. The row is now cleared before writing it to
evtchn_to_irq in order to not create a race once the row is visible for
other threads.

While at it, do not require the page to be zeroed, because it will be
overwritten with -1's in clear_evtchn_to_irq_row anyway.
