hvc/xen: Further s/MFN/GFN clean-up

2015-09-08T17:03:53Z

HVM_PARAM_CONSOLE_PFN is used to retrieved the console PFN for HVM guest. It returns a PFN (aka GFN) and not a MFN. Furthermore, use directly virt_to_gfn for both PV and HVM domain rather than doing a special case for each of the them.

xen: Use correctly the Xen memory terminologies

2015-09-08T17:03:49Z

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.

powerpc/hvsi: Fix endianness issues in the HVSI driver

2015-08-20T08:19:08Z

This patch fixes several endianness issues detected when running the HVSI driver in little endian mode. These issues are raised in little endian mode because the data exchanged in memory between the kernel and the hypervisor has to be in big endian format. This exhibits as errors such as: irq: (null) didn't like hwirq-0x1000a00 to VIRQ16 mapping (rc=-22) hvsi_console_init: couldn't create irq mapping for 0x1000a00 The data structures already have endian annotations, and sparse is generating numerous warnings based on those. This commit fixes all of them.
