2015-08-20xen/events: Support event channel rebind on ARMJulien Grall1-0/+6
Currently, the event channel rebind code is gated with the presence of the vector callback. The virtual interrupt controller on ARM has the concept of per-CPU interrupt (PPI) which allow us to support per-VCPU event channel. Therefore there is no need of vector callback for ARM. Xen is already using a free PPI to notify the guest VCPU of an event. Furthermore, the xen code initialization in Linux (see arch/arm/xen/enlighten.c) is requesting correctly a per-CPU IRQ. Introduce new helper xen_support_evtchn_rebind to allow architecture decide whether rebind an event is support or not. It will always return true on ARM and keep the same behavior on x86. This is also allow us to drop the usage of xen_have_vector_callback entirely in the ARM code.

2013-03-11xen: arm: mandate EABI and use generic atomic operations.Ian Campbell1-21/+4
Rob Herring has observed that c81611c4e96f "xen: event channel arrays are xen_ulong_t and not unsigned long" introduced a compile failure when building without CONFIG_AEABI: /tmp/ccJaIZOW.s: Assembler messages: /tmp/ccJaIZOW.s:831: Error: even register required -- `ldrexd r5,r6,[r4]' Will Deacon pointed out that this is because OABI does not require even base registers for 64-bit values. We can avoid this by simply using the existing atomic64_xchg operation and the same containerof trick as used by the cmpxchg macros. However since this code is used on memory which is shared with the hypervisor we require proper atomic instructions and cannot use the generic atomic64 callbacks (which are based on spinlocks), therefore add a dependency on !GENERIC_ATOMIC64. Since we already depend on !CPU_V6 there isn't much downside to this. While thinking about this we also observed that OABI has different struct alignment requirements to EABI, which is a problem for hypercall argument structs which are shared with the hypervisor and which must be in EABI layout. Since I don't expect people to want to run OABI kernels on Xen depend on CONFIG_AEABI explicitly too (although it also happens to be enforced by the !GENERIC_ATOMIC64 requirement too).

2013-02-20xen: event channel arrays are xen_ulong_t and not unsigned longIan Campbell1-0/+22
On ARM we want these to be the same size on 32- and 64-bit. This is an ABI change on ARM. X86 does not change.
