  • Thread-topic: [XEN][PATCH v7] x86: make Viridian support optional

From: Sergiy Kibrik <Sergiy_Kibrik@xxxxxxxx>

Add config option VIRIDIAN that covers viridian code within HVM.
Calls to viridian functions guarded by is_viridian_domain() and related macros.
Having this option may be beneficial by reducing code footprint for systems
that are not using Hyper-V.

[grygorii_strashko@xxxxxxxx: fixed NULL pointer deref in
viridian_save_domain_ctxt(); stub viridian_vcpu/domain_init/deinit()]
Signed-off-by: Sergiy Kibrik <Sergiy_Kibrik@xxxxxxxx>
Signed-off-by: Grygorii Strashko <grygorii_strashko@xxxxxxxx>
---
changes in v7:
- s/!is_viridian_vcpu()/!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_VIRIDIAN) checks in
  viridian_load_vcpu/domain_ctxt(), because it is not
  guaranteed that HVM_PARAM_VIRIDIAN will be loaded before
  viridian_load_vcpu_ctxt() is called (comment from Jason Andryuk)

changes in v6:
- add stubs for viridian_vcpu/domain_init/deinit()
- update Kconfig description
- make set(HVM_PARAM_VIRIDIAN) return -ENODEV
  if (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_VIRIDIAN) && value)

changes in v5:
- drop "depends on AMD_SVM || INTEL_VMX"
- return -EILSEQ from viridian_load_x() if !VIRIDIAN

changes in v4:
- s/HVM_VIRIDIAN/VIRIDIAN
- add "depends on AMD_SVM || INTEL_VMX"
- add guard !is_viridian_vcpu() checks in 
viridian_load_vcpu_ctxt/viridian_load_domain_ctxt

changes in v3:
- fixed NULL pointer deref in viridian_save_domain_ctxt() reported for v2,
  which caused v2 revert by commit 1fffcf10cd71 ("Revert "x86: make Viridian
  support optional"")
