xen: virtual mmu Xen pagetable handling, including the machinery to implement direct pagetables. Xen presents the real CPU's pagetables directly to guests, with no added shadowing or other layer of abstraction. Naturally this means the hypervisor must maintain close control over what the guest can put into the pagetable. When the guest modifies the pte/pmd/pgd, it must convert its domain-specific notion of a "physical" pfn into a global machine frame number (mfn) before inserting the entry into the pagetable. Xen will check to make sure the domain is allowed to create a mapping of the given mfn. Xen also requires that all mappings the guest has of its own active pagetable are read-only. This is relatively easy to implement in Linux because all pagetables share the same pte pages for kernel mappings, so updating the pte in one pagetable will implicitly update the mapping in all pagetables. Normally a pagetable becomes active when you point to it with cr3 (or the Xen equivalent), but when you do so, Xen must check the whole pagetable for correctness, which is clearly a performance problem. Xen solves this with pinning which keeps a pagetable effectively active even if its currently unused, which means that all the normal update rules are enforced. This means that it need not revalidate the pagetable when loading cr3. This patch has a first-cut implementation of pinning, but it is more fully implemented in a later patch.

xen: SMP guest support This is a fairly straightforward Xen implementation of smp_ops. Xen has its own IPI mechanisms, and has no dependency on any APIC-based IPI. The smp_ops hooks and the flush_tlb_others pv_op allow a Xen guest to avoid all APIC code in arch/i386 (the only apic operation is a single apic_read for the apic version number). One subtle point which needs to be addressed is unpinning pagetables when another cpu may have a lazy tlb reference to the pagetable. Xen will not allow an in-use pagetable to be unpinned, so we must find any other cpus with a reference to the pagetable and get them to shoot down their references.

xen: Complete pagetable pinning Xen requires all active pagetables to be marked read-only. When the base of the pagetable is loaded into %cr3, the hypervisor validates the entire pagetable and only allows the load to proceed if it all checks out. This is pretty slow, so to mitigate this cost Xen has a notion of pinned pagetables. Pinned pagetables are pagetables which are considered to be active even if no processor's cr3 is pointing to is. This means that it must remain read-only and all updates are validated by the hypervisor. This makes context switches much cheaper, because the hypervisor doesn't need to revalidate the pagetable each time. This also adds a new paravirt hook which is called during setup once the zones and memory allocator have been initialized. When the init_mm pagetable is first built, the struct page array does not yet exist, and so there's nowhere to put he init_mm pagetable's PG_pinned flags. Once the zones are initialized and the struct page array exists, we can set the PG_pinned flags for those pages. This patch also adds the Xen support for pte pages allocated out of highmem (highpte) by implementing xen_kmap_atomic_pte.
