Subject: [PATCH linux v2 0/9] xen: pvhvm: support bootup on secondary vCPUs
Date: Thu, 30 Jun 2016 17:56:34 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1467302203-22399-1-git-send-email-vkuznets@redhat.com> (raw)
It may happen that Xen's and Linux's ideas of vCPU id diverge. In
particular, when we crash on a secondary vCPU we may want to do kdump
and unlike plain kexec where we do migrate_to_reboot_cpu() we try booting
on the vCPU which crashed. This doesn't work very well for PVHVM guests as
we have a number of hypercalls where we pass vCPU id as a parameter. These
hypercalls either fail or do something unexpected. To solve the issue we
need to have a mapping between Linux's and Xen's vCPU ids.
This series solves the issue for x86 PVHVM guests. PV guests don't (and
probably won't) support kdump so I always assume Xen's vCPU id == Linux's
vCPU id. ARM guests will probably need to get proper mapping once we start
supporting kexec/kdump there.
Changes since v1:
- "x86/acpi: store ACPI ids from MADT for future usage" patch added.
- Use ACPI ids instead of vLAPIC ids/2 [Andrew Cooper, Jan Beulich]
- Introduce xen_vcpu_nr() helper [David Vrabel].
- Modify all callers of HYPERVISOR_vcpu_op() instead of modifying
HYPERVISOR_vcpu_op() [David Vrabel]
Vitaly Kuznetsov (9):
x86/xen: update cpuid.h from Xen-4.7
x86/acpi: store ACPI ids from MADT for future usage
xen: introduce xen_vcpu_id mapping
x86/xen: use xen_vcpu_id mapping for HYPERVISOR_vcpu_op
x86/xen: use xen_vcpu_id mapping when pointing vcpu_info to the
shared_info page
xen/events: use xen_vcpu_id mapping in events_base
xen/events: fifo: use xen_vcpu_id mapping
xen/evtchn: use xen_vcpu_id mapping
xen/pvhvm: run xen_vcpu_setup() for the boot CPU
