[Xen-devel] [PATCH v11 00/14] Implement the XEN_DOMCTL_memory_mapping hypercall for ARM

[Arianna Avanzini <avanzini.arianna@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

here is the eleventh version of my implementation proposal for the DOMCTL
memory_mapping for the ARM architecture. As usual, I'll try to keep this
as short as I can by just going through the most relevant changes. A more
detailed changelog is in the description of each of the commits, while an
extensive summary of the patch series' genesis can be found in the last
full cover letter ([1]).
Please note that this patchset includes a contribution from Andrii Tseglytskyi,
as you may also see from the shortlog below.

Patch 0001 has been fixed according to suggestions given by Julien Grall and
approved by Ian Campbell. Now it handles even level 3 mappings. Also, as
suggested by Andrew Cooper, the printk uses a XENLOG_G_WARNING loglevel so
that it can be rate-limited appropriately.

Patch 0002 has also been changed according to directives provided by Julien
Grall. Now partially-mapped memory regions are unmapped regardless of their
being I/O-memory or not.

Patch 0008 has been fixed according to directive from Julien Grall.

Patch 0010 has been added to allow FLASK to handle the memory_mapping case
also on ARM architecture, therefore preventing wrong error messages from
being printed, as indicated by Julien Grall.

A new patch 0011, contributed by Andrii Tseglytskyi, has been merged into
the series. It adds a FLASK policy rule to allow a domU to access previously-
mapped I/O-memory regions.

Patch 0012 has been modified according to suggestions provided by Ian Campbell.
The VGA-related bits have been moved to a libxl_pci helper. Non-functional
changes have been split into patch 0013 to facilitate review. A leftover debug
print has been removed.

As usual, the code has again been tested on a cubieboard2, with Linux v3.15-rc3
as a dom0 and ERIKA Enterprise ([3]) as a domU. The x86 bits have been tested on
an x86_64 machine with Linux 3.15.0-rc5 as both dom0 and domU.
Any feedback about this new version of the patchset is more than welcome,
Arianna
