2009-12-04xen: try harder to balloon up under memory pressure.Ian Campbell1-26/+5
Currently if the balloon driver is unable to increase the guest's reservation it assumes the failure was due to reaching its full allocation, gives up on the ballooning operation and records the limit it reached as the "hard limit". The driver will not try again until the target is set again (even to the same value). However it is possible that ballooning has in fact failed due to memory pressure in the host and therefore it is desirable to keep attempting to reach the target in case memory becomes available. The most likely scenario is that some guests are ballooning down while others are ballooning up and therefore there is temporary memory pressure while things stabilise. You would not expect a well behaved toolstack to ask a domain to balloon to more than its allocation nor would you expect it to deliberately over-commit memory by setting balloon targets which exceed the total host memory. This patch drops the concept of a hard limit and causes the balloon driver to retry increasing the reservation on a timer in the same manner as when decreasing the reservation. Also if we partially succeed in increasing the reservation (i.e. receive less pages than we asked for) then we may as well keep those pages rather than returning them to Xen.

2009-09-22mm: replace various uses of num_physpages by totalram_pagesJan Beulich1-4/+0
Sizing of memory allocations shouldn't depend on the number of physical pages found in a system, as that generally includes (perhaps a huge amount of) non-RAM pages. The amount of what actually is usable as storage should instead be used as a basis here. Some of the calculations (i.e. those not intending to use high memory) should likely even use (totalram_pages - totalhigh_pages).

2009-01-29xen: make sysfs files behave as their names suggestJeremy Fitzhardinge1-1/+32
1: make "target_kb" only accept and produce a memory size in kilobytes. 2: add a second "target" file which produces output in bytes, and will accept memparse input (scaled bytes) This fixes the rather irritating problem that writing the same value read back into target_kb would end up shrinking the domain by a factor of 1024, with generally bad results.

2009-01-23xen: handle highmem pages correctly when shrinking a domainIan Campbell1-4/+7
Commit 1058a75f07b9bb8323fb5197be5526220f8b75cf ("xen: actually release memory when shrinking domain") causes a crash if the page being released is a highmem page. If a page is highmem then there is no need to unmap it.

Impact: fix guest kernel crash with CONFIG_XEN_SCRUB_PAGES=y Jens noticed that scrub_page() has a buggy unmap of the wrong thing. (virtual address instead of page) Linus pointed out that the whole scrub_page() code is an unnecessary reimplementation of clear_highpage() to begin with. Just use clear_highpage() rather than reimplementing it poorly.

2008-07-21sysdev: Pass the attribute to the low level sysdev show/store functionAndi Kleen1-0/+1
This allow to dynamically generate attributes and share show/store functions between attributes. Right now most attributes are generated by special macros and lots of duplicated code. With the attribute passed it's instead possible to attach some data to the attribute and then use that in shared low level functions to do different things. I need this for the dynamically generated bank attributes in the x86 machine check code, but it'll allow some further cleanups. I converted all users in tree to the new show/store prototype. It's a single huge patch to avoid unbisectable sections.

2008-05-27xen: compilation fix to balloon driver for ia64 supportIsaku Yamahata1-4/+4
fix compilation error of ballon driver on ia64. extent_start member is pointer argument. On x86 pointer argument for xen hypercall is passed as virtual address. On the other hand, ia64 and ppc, pointer argument is passed in pseudo physical address. (guest physicall address.) So they must be passed as handle and convert right before issuing hypercall.

2008-04-24xen: add balloon driverJeremy Fitzhardinge1-0/+712
The balloon driver allows memory to be dynamically added or removed from the domain, in order to allow host memory to be balanced between multiple domains. This patch introduces the Xen balloon driver, though it currently only allows a domain to be shrunk from its initial size (and re-grown back to that size). A later patch will add the ability to grow a domain beyond its initial size.
