The variable xen_store_mfn is effectively storing a GFN and not an MFN.

Based on include/xen/mm.h [1], Linux is mistakenly using MFN when GFN
is meant, I suspect this is because the first support for Xen was for
PV. This resulted in some misimplementation of helpers on ARM and
confused developers about the expected behavior.
For instance, with pfn_to_mfn, we expect to get an MFN based on the name.
Although, if we look at the implementation on x86, it's returning a GFN.
For clarity and avoid new confusion, replace any reference to mfn with
gfn in any helpers used by PV drivers. The x86 code will still keep some
reference of pfn_to_mfn which may be used by all kind of guests
No changes as been made in the hypercall field, even
though they may be invalid, in order to keep the same as the defintion
in xen repo.
Note that page_to_mfn has been renamed to xen_page_to_gfn to avoid a
name to close to the KVM function gfn_to_page.
Take also the opportunity to simplify simple construction such
as pfn_to_mfn(page_to_pfn(page)) into xen_page_to_gfn. More complex clean up
will come in follow-up patches.

The commit ccc9d90a9a8b5c4ad7e9708ec41f75ff9e98d61d "xenbus_client:
Extend interface to support multi-page ring" removes the call to
free_xenballooned_pages() in xenbus_unmap_ring_vfree_hvm(), leaking a
page for every shared ring.
Only with backends running in HVM domains were affected.

virt_to_mfn should take a void* rather an unsigned long. While it
doesn't really matter now, it would throw a compiler warning later when
virt_to_mfn will enforce the type.
At the same time, avoid to compute new virtual address every time in the
loop and directly increment the parameter as we don't use it later.

Originally Xen PV drivers only use single-page ring to pass along
information. This might limit the throughput between frontend and
backend.
The patch extends Xenbus driver to support multi-page ring, which in
general should improve throughput if ring is the bottleneck. Changes to
various frontend / backend to adapt to the new interface are also
included.
Affected Xen drivers:
* blkfront/back
* netfront/back
* pcifront/back
* scsifront/back
* vtpmfront
The interface is documented, as before, in xenbus_client.c.

If Xenstore sends back a XS_ERROR for TRANSACTION_END, the driver BUGs
because it cannot find the matching transaction in the list. For
TRANSACTION_START, it leaks memory.
Check the message as returned from xenbus_dev_request_and_reply(), and
clean up for TRANSACTION_START or discard the error for
TRANSACTION_END.

The 'read_reply' works with 'process_msg' to read of a reply in XenBus.
'process_msg' is running from within the 'xenbus' thread. Whenever
a message shows up in XenBus it is put on a xs_state.reply_list list
and 'read_reply' picks it up.
The problem is if the backend domain or the xenstored process is killed.
In which case 'xenbus' is still awaiting - and 'read_reply' if called -
stuck forever waiting for the reply_list to have some contents.
This is normally not a problem - as the backend domain can come back
or the xenstored process can be restarted. However if the domain
is in process of being powered off/restarted/halted - there is no
point of waiting on it coming back - as we are effectively being
terminated and should not impede the progress.
This patch solves this problem by checking whether the guest is the
right domain. If it is an initial domain and hurtling towards death -
there is no point of continuing the wait. All other type of guests
continue with their behavior (as Xenstore is expected to still be
running in another domain).

The user has the option of disabling the platform driver:
00:02.0 Unassigned class [ff80]: XenSource, Inc. Xen Platform Device (rev 01)
which is used to unplug the emulated drivers (IDE, Realtek 8169, etc)
and allow the PV drivers to take over. If the user wishes
to disable that they can set:
xen_platform_pci=0
(in the guest config file)
or
xen_emul_unplug=never
(on the Linux command line)
except it does not work properly. The PV drivers still try to
load and since the Xen platform driver is not run - and it
has not initialized the grant tables, most of the PV drivers

which is hardly nice. This patch fixes this by having each
PV driver check for:
- if running in PV, then it is fine to execute (as that is their
native environment).
- if running in HVM, check if user wanted 'xen_emul_unplug=never',
in which case bail out and don't load any PV drivers.
- if running in HVM, and if PCI device 5853:0001 (xen_platform_pci)
does not exist, then bail out and not load PV drivers.
- (v2) if running in HVM, and if the user wanted 'xen_emul_unplug=ide-disks',
then bail out for all PV devices _except_ the block one.
Ditto for the network one ('nics').
- (v2) if running in HVM, and if the user wanted 'xen_emul_unplug=unnecessary'
then load block PV driver, and also setup the legacy IDE paths.
In (v3) make it actually load PV drivers.

The commit 254d1a3f02ebc10ccc6e4903394d8d3f484f715e, titled
"xen/pv-on-hvm kexec: shutdown watches from old kernel" assumes that the
XenBus backend can deal with reading of values from:
"control/platform-feature-xs_reset_watches":
... a patch for xenstored is required so that it
accepts the XS_RESET_WATCHES request from a client (see changeset
23839:42a45baf037d in xen-unstable.hg). Without the patch for xenstored
the registration of watches will fail and some features of a PVonHVM
guest are not available. The guest is still able to boot, but repeated
kexec boots will fail."
Sadly this is not true when using a Xen 3.4 hypervisor and booting a PVHVM
guest. We end up hanging at:
err = xenbus_scanf(XBT_NIL, "control",
"platform-feature-xs_reset_watches", "%d", &supported);
This can easily be seen with guests hanging at xenbus_init:
NX (Execute Disable) protection: active
SMBIOS 2.4 present.
DMI: Xen HVM domU, BIOS 3.4.0 05/13/2011
Hypervisor detected: Xen HVM
Xen version 3.4.
Xen Platform PCI: I/O protocol version 1
... snip ..
calling xenbus_init+0x0/0x27e @ 1
Reverting the commit or using the attached patch fixes the issue. This fix
checks whether the hypervisor is older than 4.0 and if so does not try to
perform the read.

Since Xen-4.2, hvm domains may have portions of their memory paged out. When a
foreign domain (such as dom0) attempts to map these frames, the map will
initially fail. The hypervisor returns a suitable errno, and kicks an
asynchronous page-in operation carried out by a helper. The foreign domain is
expected to retry the mapping operation until it eventually succeeds. The
foreign domain is not put to sleep because itself could be the one running the
pager assist (typical scenario for dom0).
This patch adds support for this mechanism for backend drivers using grant
mapping and copying operations. Specifically, this covers the blkback and
gntdev drivers (which map foreign grants), and the netback driver (which copies
foreign grants).
* Add a retry method for grants that fail with GNTST_eagain (i.e. because the
target foreign frame is paged out).
* Insert hooks with appropriate wrappers in the aforementioned drivers.
The retry loop is only invoked if the grant operation status is GNTST_eagain.
It guarantees to leave a new status code different from GNTST_eagain. Any other
status code results in identical code execution as before.
The retry loop performs 256 attempts with increasing time intervals through a
32 second period. It uses msleep to yield while waiting for the next retry.
V2 after feedback from David Vrabel:
* Explicit MAX_DELAY instead of wrap-around delay into zero
* Abstract GNTST_eagain check into core grant table code for netback module.
V3 after feedback from Ian Campbell:
* Add placeholder in array of grant table error descriptions for unrelated
error code we jump over.
* Eliminate single map and retry macro in favor of a generic batch flavor.
* Some renaming.

bind_evtchn_to_irqhandler can legitimately return 0 (irq 0): it is not
an error.
If Linux is running as an HVM domain and is running as Dom0, use
xenstored_local_init to initialize the xenstore page and event channel.
Changes in v4:
- do not xs_reset_watches on dom0.
Changes in v2:
- refactor xenbus_init.

There is no need for those functions/variables to be visible. Make them
static and also fix the compile warnings of this sort:
drivers/xen/<some file>.c: warning: symbol '<blah>' was not declared. Should it be static?
Some of them just require including the header file that
declares the functions.

Add xs_reset_watches function to shutdown watches from old kernel after
kexec boot. The old kernel does not unregister all watches in the
shutdown path. They are still active, the double registration can not
be detected by the new kernel. When the watches fire, unexpected events
will arrive and the xenwatch thread will crash (jumps to NULL). An
orderly reboot of a hvm guest will destroy the entire guest with all its
resources (including the watches) before it is rebuilt from scratch, so
the missing unregister is not an issue in that case.
With this change the xenstored is instructed to wipe all active watches
for the guest. However, a patch for xenstored is required so that it
accepts the XS_RESET_WATCHES request from a client (see changeset
23839:42a45baf037d in xen-unstable.hg). Without the patch for xenstored
the registration of watches will fail and some features of a PVonHVM
guest are not available. The guest is still able to boot, but repeated
kexec boots will fail.

Pull Xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"Features:
* Extend the APIC ops implementation and add IRQ_WORKER vector
support so that 'perf' can work properly.
* Fix self-ballooning code, and balloon logic when booting as initial
domain.
* Move array printing code to generic debugfs
* Support XenBus domains.
* Lazily free grants when a domain is dead/non-existent.
* In M2P code use batching calls
Bug-fixes:
* Fix NULL dereference in allocation failure path (hvc_xen)
* Fix unbinding of IRQ_WORKER vector during vCPU hot-unplug
* Fix HVM guest resume - we would leak an PIRQ value instead of
reusing the existing one."
Fix up add-add onflicts in arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c due to addition of
apic ipi interface next to the new apic_id functions.

A rather annoying and common case is when booting a PVonHVM guest
and exposing the PV KBD and PV VFB - as broken toolstacks don't
always initialize the backends correctly.
Normally The HVM guest is using the VGA driver and the emulated
keyboard for this (though upstream version of QEMU implements
PV KBD, but still uses a VGA driver). We provide a very basic
two-stage wait mechanism - where we wait for 30 seconds for all
devices, and then for 270 for all them except the two mentioned.
That allows us to wait for the essential devices, like network
or disk for the full 6 minutes.
To trigger this, put this in your guest config:
vfb = [ 'vnc=1, vnclisten=0.0.0.0 ,vncunused=1']
instead of this:
vnc=1
vnclisten="0.0.0.0"

Pull xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"which has three neat features:
- PV multiconsole support, so that there can be hvc1, hvc2, etc; This
can be used in HVM and in PV mode.
- P-state and C-state power management driver that uploads said power
management data to the hypervisor. It also inhibits cpufreq
scaling drivers to load so that only the hypervisor can make power
management decisions - fixing a weird perf bug.
There is one thing in the Kconfig that you won't like: "default y
if (X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ = y || X86_POWERNOW_K8 = y)" (note, that it
all depends on CONFIG_XEN which depends on CONFIG_PARAVIRT which by
default is off). I've a fix to convert that boolean expression
into "default m" which I am going to post after the cpufreq git
pull - as the two patches to make this work depend on a fix in Dave
Jones's tree.
- Function Level Reset (FLR) support in the Xen PCI backend.
Fixes:
- Kconfig dependencies for Xen PV keyboard and video
- Compile warnings and constify fixes
- Change over to use percpu_xxx instead of this_cpu_xxx"
Fix up trivial conflicts in drivers/tty/hvc/hvc_xen.c due to changes to
a removed commit.

Unfortunately xend creates a bogus console/0 frotend/backend entry pair
on xenstore that console backends cannot properly cope with.
Any guest behavior that is not completely ignoring console/0 is going
to either cause problems with xenconsoled or qemu.
Returning 0 or -ENODEV from xencons_probe is not enough because it is
going to cause the frontend state to become 4 or 6 respectively.
The best possible thing we can do here is just ignore the entry from
xenbus_probe_frontend.

The individual drivers' remove functions could legitimately attempt to
access this information (for logging messages if nothing else). Note
that I did not in fact observe a problem anywhere, but I came across
this while looking into the reasons for what turned out to need the
