Pull Xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"Two major features that Xen community is excited about:
The first is event channel scalability by David Vrabel - we switch
over from an two-level per-cpu bitmap of events (IRQs) - to an FIFO
queue with priorities. This lets us be able to handle more events,
have lower latency, and better scalability. Good stuff.
The other is PVH by Mukesh Rathor. In short, PV is a mode where the
kernel lets the hypervisor program page-tables, segments, etc. With
EPT/NPT capabilities in current processors, the overhead of doing this
in an HVM (Hardware Virtual Machine) container is much lower than the
hypervisor doing it for us.
In short we let a PV guest run without doing page-table, segment,
syscall, etc updates through the hypervisor - instead it is all done
within the guest container. It is a "hybrid" PV - hence the 'PVH'
name - a PV guest within an HVM container.
The major benefits are less code to deal with - for example we only
use one function from the the pv_mmu_ops (which has 39 function
calls); faster performance for syscall (no context switches into the
hypervisor); less traps on various operations; etc.
It is still being baked - the ABI is not yet set in stone. But it is
pretty awesome and we are excited about it.
Lastly, there are some changes to ARM code - you should get a simple
conflict which has been resolved in #linux-next.
In short, this pull has awesome features.
Features:
- FIFO event channels. Key advantages: support for over 100,000
events (2^17), 16 different event priorities, improved fairness in
event latency through the use of FIFOs.
- Xen PVH support. "It’s a fully PV kernel mode, running with
paravirtualized disk and network, paravirtualized interrupts and
timers, no emulated devices of any kind (and thus no qemu), no BIOS
or legacy boot — but instead of requiring PV MMU, it uses the HVM
hardware extensions to virtualize the pagetables, as well as system
calls and other privileged operations." (from "The
Paravirtualization Spectrum, Part 2: From poles to a spectrum")
Bug-fixes:
- Fixes in balloon driver (refactor and make it work under ARM)
- Allow xenfb to be used in HVM guests.
- Allow xen_platform_pci=0 to work properly.
- Refactors in event channels"
