xen: update grant_table.h

Update include/xen/interface/grant_table.h to its newest version.

This allows to drop some private definitions in grant-table.c and
include/xen/grant_table.h.

xen: fix wrong SPDX headers of Xen related headers

Commit b24413180f5600 ("License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license
identifier to files with no license") was meant to do a tree-wide
cleanup for files without any license information by adding a SPDX
GPL-2.0 line to them.

Unfortunately this was applied even to several Xen-related headers
which have been originally under the MIT license, but obviously have
been copied to the Linux tree from the Xen project without keeping the
license boiler plate as required.

Correct that by changing the license of those files back to "MIT".

Some files still contain the MIT license text. Replace that by the
related SPDX line.

xen/gntdev: mark userspace PTEs as special on x86 PV guests

In an x86 PV guest, get_user_pages_fast() on a userspace address range
containing foreign mappings does not work correctly because the M2P
lookup of the MFN from a userspace PTE may return the wrong page.

Force get_user_pages_fast() to fail on such addresses by marking the PTEs
as special.

If Xen has XENFEAT_gnttab_map_avail_bits (available since at least
4.0), we can do so efficiently in the grant map hypercall. Otherwise,
it needs to be done afterwards. This is both inefficient and racy
(the mapping is visible to the task before we fixup the PTEs), but
will be fine for well-behaved applications that do not use the mapping
until after the mmap() system call returns.

Guests with XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap (ARM and x86 HVM or PVH)
do not need this since get_user_pages() has always worked correctly
for them.

xen/arm: introduce GNTTABOP_cache_flush

Introduce support for new hypercall GNTTABOP_cache_flush.
Use it to perform cache flashing on pages used for dma when necessary.

If GNTTABOP_cache_flush is supported by the hypervisor, we don't need to
bounce dma map operations that involve foreign grants and non-coherent
devices.

xen: grant: use xen_pfn_t type for frame_list.

This correctly sizes it as 64 bit on ARM but leaves it as unsigned
long on x86 (therefore no intended change on x86).

The long and ulong guest handles are now unused (and a bit dangerous)
so remove them.

xen: Introduce xen_pfn_t for pfn and mfn types

All the original Xen headers have xen_pfn_t as mfn and pfn type, however
when they have been imported in Linux, xen_pfn_t has been replaced with
unsigned long. That might work for x86 and ia64 but it does not for arm.
Bring back xen_pfn_t and let each architecture define xen_pfn_t as they
see fit.

xen/granttable: Introducing grant table V2 stucture

This patch introduces new structures of grant table V2, grant table V2 is an
extension from V1. Grant table is shared between guest and Xen, and Xen is
responsible to do corresponding work for grant operations, such as: figure
out guest's grant table version, perform different actions based on
different grant table version, etc. Although full-page structure of V2
is different from V1, it play the same role as V1.

# 183d03cc 17-May-2010 Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@eu.citrix.com>

xen: Xen PCI platform device driver.

Add the xen pci platform device driver that is responsible
for initializing the grant table and xenbus in PV on HVM mode.
Few changes to xenbus and grant table are necessary to allow the delayed
initialization in HVM mode.
Grant table needs few additional modifications to work in HVM mode.

The Xen PCI platform device raises an irq every time an event has been
delivered to us. However these interrupts are only delivered to vcpu 0.
The Xen PCI platform interrupt handler calls xen_hvm_evtchn_do_upcall
that is a little wrapper around __xen_evtchn_do_upcall, the traditional
Xen upcall handler, the very same used with traditional PV guests.

When running on HVM the event channel upcall is never called while in
progress because it is a normal Linux irq handler (and we cannot switch
the irq chip wholesale to the Xen PV ones as we are running QEMU and
might have passed in PCI devices), therefore we cannot be sure that
evtchn_upcall_pending is 0 when returning.
For this reason if evtchn_upcall_pending is set by Xen we need to loop
again on the event channels set pending otherwise we might loose some
event channel deliveries.

xen: add missing definitions for xen grant table which ia64/xen needs

Add xen handles realted definitions for grant table which ia64/xen
needs.
Pointer argumsnts for ia64/xen hypercall are passed in pseudo physical
address (guest physical address) so that it is required to convert
guest kernel virtual address into pseudo physical address right before
issuing hypercall.
The xen guest handle represents such arguments.
Define necessary handles and helper functions.

xen: Add grant table support

Add Xen 'grant table' driver which allows granting of access to
selected local memory pages by other virtual machines and,
symmetrically, the mapping of remote memory pages which other virtual
machines have granted access to.

This driver is a prerequisite for many of the Xen virtual device
drivers, which grant the 'device driver domain' restricted and
temporary access to only those memory pages that are currently
involved in I/O operations.
