2023-08-22xen: privcmd: Add support for irqfdViresh Kumar1-0/+14
Xen provides support for injecting interrupts to the guests via the HYPERVISOR_dm_op() hypercall. The same is used by the Virtio based device backend implementations, in an inefficient manner currently. Generally, the Virtio backends are implemented to work with the Eventfd based mechanism. In order to make such backends work with Xen, another software layer needs to poll the Eventfds and raise an interrupt to the guest using the Xen based mechanism. This results in an extra context switch. This is not a new problem in Linux though. It is present with other hypervisors like KVM, etc. as well. The generic solution implemented in the kernel for them is to provide an IOCTL call to pass the interrupt details and eventfd, which lets the kernel take care of polling the eventfd and raising of the interrupt, instead of handling this in user space (which involves an extra context switch). This patch adds support to inject a specific interrupt to guest using the eventfd mechanism, by preventing the extra context switch. Inspired by existing implementations for KVM, etc..

2023-07-26xen/evtchn: Introduce new IOCTL to bind static evtchnRahul Singh1-0/+9
Xen 4.17 supports the creation of static evtchns. To allow user space application to bind static evtchns introduce new ioctl "IOCTL_EVTCHN_BIND_STATIC". Existing IOCTL doing more than binding that’s why we need to introduce the new IOCTL to only bind the static event channels. Static evtchns to be available for use during the lifetime of the guest. When the application exits, __unbind_from_irq() ends up being called from release() file operations because of that static evtchns are getting closed. To avoid closing the static event channel, add the new bool variable "is_static" in "struct irq_info" to mark the event channel static when creating the event channel to avoid closing the static evtchn. Also, take this opportunity to remove the open-coded version of the evtchn close in drivers/xen/evtchn.c file and use xen_evtchn_close().

2018-05-14xen/privcmd: add IOCTL_PRIVCMD_MMAP_RESOURCEPaul Durrant1-0/+11
My recent Xen patch series introduces a new HYPERVISOR_memory_op to support direct priv-mapping of certain guest resources (such as ioreq pages, used by emulators) by a tools domain, rather than having to access such resources via the guest P2M. This patch adds the necessary infrastructure to the privcmd driver and Xen MMU code to support direct resource mapping. NOTE: The adjustment in the MMU code is partially cosmetic. Xen will now allow a PV tools domain to map guest pages either by GFN or MFN, thus the term 'mfn' has been swapped for 'pfn' in the lower layers of the remap code.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman3-0/+3
Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license. Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was chosen based on the license information in the file. GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall exception: NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL code, without confusing license compliance tools. Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format is: ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE) SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will happen in a separate step. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the methodology of how this patch was researched.

2017-05-10uapi: export all headers under uapi directoriesNicolas Dichtel1-5/+0
Regularly, when a new header is created in include/uapi/, the developer forgets to add it in the corresponding Kbuild file. This error is usually detected after the release is out. In fact, all headers under uapi directories should be exported, thus it's useless to have an exhaustive list.

The purpose if this ioctl is to allow a user of privcmd to restrict its operation such that it will no longer service arbitrary hypercalls via IOCTL_PRIVCMD_HYPERCALL, and will check for a matching domid when servicing IOCTL_PRIVCMD_DM_OP or IOCTL_PRIVCMD_MMAP*.

2017-02-14xen/privcmd: Add IOCTL_PRIVCMD_DM_OPPaul Durrant1-0/+13
Recently a new dm_op[1] hypercall was added to Xen to provide a mechanism for restricting device emulators (such as QEMU) to a limited set of hypervisor operations, and being able to audit those operations in the kernel of the domain in which they run. This patch adds IOCTL_PRIVCMD_DM_OP as gateway for __HYPERVISOR_dm_op. NOTE: There is no requirement for user-space code to bounce data through locked memory buffers (as with IOCTL_PRIVCMD_HYPERCALL) since privcmd has enough information to lock the original buffers directly.

2016-07-25xen/evtchn: add IOCTL_EVTCHN_RESTRICTDavid Vrabel1-0/+15
IOCTL_EVTCHN_RESTRICT limits the file descriptor to being able to bind to interdomain event channels from a specific domain. Event channels that are already bound continue to work for sending and receiving notifications. This is useful as part of deprivileging a user space PV backend or device model (QEMU). e.g., Once the device model as bound to the ioreq server event channels it can restrict the file handle so an exploited DM cannot use it to create or bind to arbitrary event channels.

2016-01-07xen/gntdev: add ioctl for grant copyDavid Vrabel1-0/+50
Add IOCTL_GNTDEV_GRANT_COPY to allow applications to copy between user space buffers and grant references. This interface is similar to the GNTTABOP_copy hypercall ABI except the local buffers are provided using a virtual address (instead of a GFN and offset). To avoid userspace from having to page align its buffers the driver will use two or more ops if required. If the ioctl returns 0, the application must check the status of each segment with the segments status field. If the ioctl returns a -ve error code (EINVAL or EFAULT), the status of individual ops is undefined.

The privcmd code is mixing the usage of GFN and MFN within the same functions which make the code difficult to understand when you only work with auto-translated guests. The privcmd driver is only dealing with GFN so replace all the mention of MFN into GFN. The ioctl structure used to map foreign change has been left unchanged given that the userspace is using it.
