Technically this is not a bug, hence no Fixes tag. I'm fine with this patch not
landing in 4.20. That said, I don't agree with what you wrote about a change in
behavior. There is no functional change at all. Only the node name change. It
could impact only those OSes that parse by the exact name which would be super
irrational and wrong. The only way one should parse intc is by searching for
"interrupt-controller" property as written in DT spec.

It's required to avoid arch_iommu_hwdom_init() creating an identity
mapping for APIC_DEFAULT_PHYS_BASE, which would prevent the local APIC
emulation from being used.

Note that mp_lapic_addr can be zeor if the host local APICs are
started in x2APIC mode, or it could (in theory) contain an address
different than APIC_DEFAULT_PHYS_BASE.

Thanks, Roger.

separate seletion,
  and moved definition of "config X86_STDVGA" into it.
* Added a new macro "#define DISABLED_EMU_MASK (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_X86_STDVGA)

Re: [PATCH v3 02/25] drm/dumb-buffers: Provide helper to set pitch and size

According to this, every driver that supports, say, NV12, should 
implement their own custom ioctl to do the exact same thing? And, of 
course, every userspace app that uses, say, NV12, should then add code 
for all these platforms to call the custom ioctls?


Yes, that's exactly the current status.

There has been discussion about a new dumb-create ioctl that takes a DRM 
format as parameter. I'm all for it, but it's out of the scope for this 
series.




As libdrm's modetest currently supports YUV formats with dumb buffers, 
should we remove that code, as it's not correct and I'm sure people 
use libdrm code as a reference?


Of course not.



Well, I'm not serious above, but I think all my points from the 
earlier version are still valid. I don't like this. It changes the 
parameters of the ioctl (bpp used to be bits-per-pixel, not it's 
"color mode"), and the behavior of the ioctl, behavior that we've had 
for a very long time, and we have no idea how many users there are 
that will break (could be none, of course). And the documentation 
changes make the current behavior and uses wrong or legacy.


Before I go into details about this statement, what use case exactly are 
you referring to when you say that behavior changes?


Best regards
Thomas



Clearly we need something new and better for the buffer allocation, 
but for the time being, I'd be more comfortable just keep the current 
behavior, at least for all the drivers I use or maintain: omapdrm, 
tidss, renesas, xlnx, tilcdc.

Call drm_mode_size_dumb() to compute dumb-buffer scanline pitch

Xe's internal calculation allowed for 64-bit wide buffer sizes, but
the ioctl's internal checks always verified against 32-bit wide limits.
Hance, it is safe to limit the driver code to 32-bit calculations as
well.

I am sorry.
After sending my series, I just found out that there are v3 for this work.
https://lore.kernel.org/xen-devel/7a0ee883-8542-4e17-adeb-9c1d83f58...@suse.com/
And it seems that the v3 has no other implementation-related comment, just 
waiting for x86 Maintainers' opinion.

The list_for_each_entry*() iterators are testing for having reached the

head. This results in the list head being addressed via a list element
pointer, which is undefined, in case the list elements have a higher
alignment than the list head.

Avoid that by testing for the end of the list before advancing the
iterator. In case of having reached the end of the list, set the
iterator to NULL and use that for stopping the loop. This has the
additional advantage of not leaking the iterator pointing to something
which isn't a list element past the loop.

There is one case in the Xen code where the iterator is used after
the loop: it is tested to be non-NULL to indicate the loop has run
until reaching the end of the list. This case is modified to use the
iterator being NULL for indicating the end of the list has been
reached.

I agree there's an issue here, but as said before, I do not agree with
this patch.

For starters, bloat-o-meter on a random top-of-tree build says

     add/remove: 8/1 grow/shrink: 112/68 up/down: 4314/-2855 (1459)

which is a horrible overhead for a case where the sequence of

... the need for this adjustment being discovered after-the-fact means
it's a very risky change at this juncture in the release.

I have not reviewed the patch in enough detail to form an opinion on the
approach yet. However, I want to note that I also don't think that this
series should be committed at this stage of the release process. It
would be better to wait for the 4.21 release cycle.


Based on the comments above lets consider then this patch to be merged to 4.21.

According to this, every driver that supports, say, NV12, should 
implement their own custom ioctl to do the exact same thing? And, of 
course, every userspace app that uses, say, NV12, should then add code 
for all these platforms to call the custom ioctls?


Yes, that's exactly the current status.

There has been discussion about a new dumb-create ioctl that takes a DRM 
format as parameter. I'm all for it, but it's out of the scope for this 
series.




As libdrm's modetest currently supports YUV formats with dumb buffers, 
should we remove that code, as it's not correct and I'm sure people 
use libdrm code as a reference?


Of course not.



Well, I'm not serious above, but I think all my points from the 
earlier version are still valid. I don't like this. It changes the 
parameters of the ioctl (bpp used to be bits-per-pixel, not it's 
"color mode"), and the behavior of the ioctl, behavior that we've had 
for a very long time, and we have no idea how many users there are 
that will break (could be none, of course). And the documentation 
changes make the current behavior and uses wrong or legacy.


Before I go into details about this statement, what use case exactly are 
you referring to when you say that behavior changes?


For every dumb_buffer allocation with bpp that is not divisible by 8, 
the result is different, i.e. instead of DIV_ROUND_UP(width * bpp, 8), 
we now have width * DIV_ROUND_UP(bpp, 8). This, of course, depends on 
the driver implementation. Some already do the latter.


This change also first calls the drm_driver_color_mode_format(), which 
could change the behavior even more, but afaics at the moment does not. 
Although, maybe some platform does width * DIV_ROUND_UP(bpp, 8) even for 
bpp < 8, and then this series changes it for 1, 2 and 4 bpps (but not 
for 3, 5, 6, 7, if I'm not mistaken).


However, as the bpp is getting rounded up, this probably won't break any 
user. But it _is_ a change in the behavior of a uapi, and every time we 
change a uapi that's been out there for a long time, I'm getting 
slightly uncomfortable.


So, as a summary, I have a feeling that nothing will break, but I can't 
say for sure. And as I'm having trouble seeing the benefit of this 
change for the user, I get even more uncomfortable.

Just one thing - to (hopefully) get a better understanding of the origin of
those errors, you may want to increase verbosity of the "xl save", e.g.
"xl -vvv save".

Well, PVHv1 would have needed such adjustment, as it was also limited
to hap_paddr_bits instead of paddr_bits.

cosmetic: line length (it's mentioned in the commit message).  I can
switch back to PAGE_SHIFT, didn't think it was a big deal since it's
a one time only calculation.

That's interesting, it seems to me that Linux is assuming that pages
at certain boundaries are superpages, and thus it can just increase
the mfn to get the next physical page.

It would be very interesting to figure out where those requests
originate, iow: which entity in Linux creates the bios with the
faulting address(es).

It's a wild guess, but could you try to boot Linux with swiotlb=force
on the command line and attempt to trigger the issue?  I wonder
whether imposing the usage of the swiotlb will surface the issues as
CPU accesses, rather then IOMMU faults, and that could get us a trace
inside Linux of how those requests are generated.

There's possibly some condition we are missing that causes a component
in Linux to assume the next address is mfn + 1, instead of doing the
full address translation from the linear or pfn space.

Re: [PATCH v3 02/25] drm/dumb-buffers: Provide helper to set pitch and size

[Tomi Valkeinen]

Hi,

On 18/02/2025 16:23, Thomas Zimmermann wrote:

Add drm_modes_size_dumb(), a helper to calculate the dumb-buffer
scanline pitch and allocation size. Implementations of struct
drm_driver.dumb_create can call the new helper for their size
computations.

There is currently quite a bit of code duplication among DRM's
memory managers. Each calculates scanline pitch and buffer size
from the given arguments, but the implementations are inconsistent
in how they treat alignment and format support. Later patches will
unify this code on top of drm_mode_size_dumb() as much as possible.

drm_mode_size_dumb() uses existing 4CC format helpers to interpret
the given color mode. This makes the dumb-buffer interface behave
similar the kernel's video= parameter. Current per-driver implementations
again likely have subtle differences or bugs in how they support color
modes.

The dumb-buffer UAPI is only specified for known color modes. These
values describe linear, single-plane RGB color formats or legacy index
formats. Other values should not be specified. But some user space
still does. So for unknown color modes, there are a number of known
exceptions for which drm_mode_size_dumb() calculates the pitch from
the bpp value, as before. All other values work the same but print
an error.

v3:
- document the UAPI semantics
- compute scanline pitch from for unknown color modes (Andy, Tomi)

Both of these were, iirc, deliberately written using switch(), to ease
possible future changes.

To be honest, I do not see any value in the way they are currently
written. However, if you prefer, I can add a deviation for this, with
one SAF comment for each of these two. The reason for the deviation
would be "deliberate to ease possible future change". Please let me know
how you would like to proceed.

Well, best next thing you can do is seek input from the person who has

Andrew wrote in chat that he is OK with a deviation and he can live with
a SAF deviation. Here is the patch.

xen/x86: resolve the last 3 MISRA R16.6 violations

MISRA R16.6 states that "Every switch statement shall have at least two
switch-clauses". There are only 3 violations left on x86 (zero on ARM).

One of them is only a violation depending on the kconfig configuration.
So deviate it instead with a SAF comment.

Two of them are deliberate to enable future additions. Deviate them as
such.

While this fix changes behavior for everyone, so it is risky at RC5, it
also fixes bugs with DT overlays, but that is an experimental feature. I
am in two minds whether it should go in right now or not. Maybe I would
wait until 4.20 is out and commit when the tree reopens.

Technically this is not a bug, hence no Fixes tag. I'm fine with this patch not
landing in 4.20. That said, I don't agree with what you wrote about a change in
behavior. There is no functional change at all. Only the node name change. It
could impact only those OSes that parse by the exact name which would be super
irrational and wrong. The only way one should parse intc is by searching for
"interrupt-controller" property as written in DT spec.


I would prefer to have this changes when the tree reopens.

Hello,


So the issue doesn't happen on debug=y builds? That's unexpected.  I would
expect the opposite, that some code in Linux assumes that pfn + 1 == mfn +
1, and hence breaks when the relation is reversed.


It was also surprising for me but I think the key thing is that debug=y
causes whole mapping to be reversed so each PFN lands on completely different
MFN e.g. MFN=0x130 is mapped to PFN=0x20e50c in ndebug, but in debug
it's mapped to PFN=0x5F. I guess that's why I can't reproduce the
problem.


Can you see if you can reproduce with dom0-iommu=strict in the Xen command
line?


Unfortunately, it doesn't help. But I have few more observations.

Firstly, I checked the "xen-mfndump dump-m2p" output and found that misread
blocks are mapped to suspiciously round MFNs. I have different versions of
Xen and Linux kernel on each machine and I see some coincidence.

I'm writing few huge files without Xen to ensure that they have been written
correctly (because under Xen both read and writeback is affected). Then I'm
booting to Xen, memory-mapping the files and reading each page. I see that when
block is corrupted, it is mapped on round MFN e.g. pfn=0x5095d9/mfn=0x160,
another on pfn=0x4095d9/mfn=0x150 etc.

On another machine with different Linux/Xen version these faults appear on
pfn=0x20e50c/mfn=0x130, pfn=0x30e50c/mfn=0x140 etc.

I also noticed that during read of page that is mapped to
pfn=0x20e50c/mfn=0x130, I'm getting these faults from DMAR:

```

That's interesting, it seems to me that Linux is assuming that pages
at certain boundaries are superpages, and thus it can just increase
the mfn to get the next physical page.


I'm not sure this is true. See below.


and every time I'm dropping the cache and reading this region, I'm getting
DMAR faults on few random addresses from 12-12f000 range (I guess
MFNs 0x120-12f). MFNs 0x120-0x12000ff are not mapped to any PFN in
Dom0 (based on xen-mfndump output.).


It would be very interesting to figure out where those requests
originate, iow: which entity in Linux creates the bios with the
faulting address(es).


I _think_ this is related to the kernel trying to get some contiguous areas
for the buffers used by the I/Os. As those areas are being given back after
the I/O, they don't appear in the mfndump.


It's a wild guess, but could you try to boot Linux with swiotlb=force
on the command line and attempt to trigger the issue?  I wonder
whether imposing the usage of the swiotlb will surface the issues as

cache with reads.


There's possibly some condition we are missing that causes a component
in Linux to assume the next address is mfn + 1, instead of doing the
full address translation from the linear or pfn space.


My theory is:

The kernel is seeing the used buffer to be a physically contiguous area,
so it is _not_ using a scatter-gather list (it does in the debug Xen case,
resulting in it not to show any errors). Unfortunately the buffer is not
aligned to its size, so swiotlb-xen will remap the buffer to a suitably
aligned one. The driver will then use the returned machine address for
I/Os to both the devices of the RAID configuration. When the first I/O is
done, the driver probably is calling the DMA unmap or device sync function
already, causing the intermediate contiguous region to be destroyed again
(this is the time when the DMAR errors should show up for the 2nd I/O still
running).

So the main issue IMHO is, that a DMA buffer mapped for one device is used
for 2 devices instead.

So the issue doesn't happen on debug=y builds? That's unexpected.  I would

It was also surprising for me but I think the key thing is that debug=y
causes whole mapping to be reversed so each PFN lands on completely different
MFN e.g. MFN=0x130 is mapped to PFN=0x20e50c in ndebug, but in debug
it's mapped to PFN=0x5F. I guess that's why I can't reproduce the
problem.


Can you see if you can reproduce with dom0-iommu=strict in the Xen command
line?


Unfortunately, it doesn't help. But I have few more observations.

Firstly, I checked the "xen-mfndump dump-m2p" output and found that misread
blocks are mapped to suspiciously round MFNs. I have different versions of
Xen and Linux kernel on each machine and I see some coincidence.

I'm writing few huge files without Xen to ensure that they have been written
correctly (because under Xen both read and writeback is affected). Then I'm
booting to Xen, memory-mapping the files and reading each page. I see that when
block is corrupted, it is mapped on round MFN e.g. pfn=0x5095d9/mfn=0x160,
another on pfn=0x4095d9/mfn=0x150 etc.

On another machine with different Linux/Xen version these faults appear on
pfn=0x20e50c/mfn=0x130, pfn=0x30e50c/mfn=0x140 etc.

I also noticed that during read of page that is mapped to
pfn=0x20e50c/mfn=0x130, I'm getting these faults from DMAR:

```

That's interesting, it seems to me that Linux is assuming that pages
at certain boundaries are superpages, and thus it can just increase
the mfn to get the next physical page.


I'm not sure this is true. See below.


and every time I'm dropping the cache and reading this region, I'm getting
DMAR faults on few random addresses from 12-12f000 range (I guess
MFNs 0x120-12f). MFNs 0x120-0x12000ff are not mapped to any PFN in
Dom0 (based on xen-mfndump output.).


It would be very interesting to figure out where those requests
originate, iow: which entity in Linux creates the bios with the
faulting address(es).


I _think_ this is related to the kernel trying to get some contiguous areas
for the buffers used by the I/Os. As those areas are being given back after
the I/O, they don't appear in the mfndump.


It's a wild guess, but could you try to boot Linux with swiotlb=force
on the command line and attempt to trigger the issue?  I wonder
whether imposing the usage of the swiotlb will surface the issues as
CPU accesses, rather then IOMMU faults, and that could get us a trace
inside Linux of how those requests are generated.


On the other hand, I'm not getting these DMAR faults while reading other 
regions.
Also I can't trigger the bug with reversed Dom0 mapping, even if I fill the page
cache with reads.


There's possibly some condition we are missing that causes a component
in Linux to assume the next address is mfn + 1, instead of doing the
full address translation from the linear or pfn space.


My theory is:

The kernel is seeing the used buffer to be a physically contiguous area,
so it is _not_ using a scatter-gather list (it does in the debug Xen case,
resulting in it not to show any errors). Unfortunately the buffer is not
aligned to its size, so swiotlb-xen will remap the buffer to a suitably
aligned one. The driver will then use the returned machine address for
I/Os to both the devices of the RAID configuration. When the first I/O is
done, the driver probably is calling the DMA unmap or device sync function
already, causing the intermediate contiguous region to be destroyed again
(this is the time when the DMAR errors should show up for the 2nd I/O still
running).

So the main issue IMHO is, that a DMA buffer mapped for one device is us

Feel free to keep as is then. I agree it's not a big deal here; my worry with

Hmm, yes, on one hand such a mapping would be created by default, as we
default to "dom0-iommu=map-reserved". Otoh that mapping would be replaced
before Dom0 is actually started, via the domain_creation_finished() hook.
On (modern) VMX that is. So yes, on old VMX and on SVM the slot would need
to remain unpopulated. Otoh, when the physical LAPICs are elsewhere and
when the domain is in x2APIC mode, there would be no reason to disallow
Dom0 access to that page. That would apparently mean fiddling with
iomem_caps once all vCPU-s have entered x2APIC mode. With LAPICs not
normally being elsewhere, question is whether this corner case actually
needs dealing with. Yet even if not, commentary may want extending, just
to make clear the case was considered?

Right, but that's now how dom0 is started ATM, as the local APIC is
unconditionally started in xAPIC mode and at APIC_DEFAULT_PHYS_BASE.

I could use vlapic_base_address() against vCPU#0 vlapic, but even in
guest_wrmsr_apic_base() we don't allow moving the local APIC MMIO
region, and hence I assumed it was fine to just use
APIC_DEFAULT_PHYS_BASE here.  Note in pvh_setup_acpi_madt() Xen also
hardcodes the local APIC address to APIC_DEFAULT_PHYS_BASE.

Would you be fine if I expand the comment so it's:

/* If using an emulated local APIC make sure its MMIO is unpopulated. */
if ( has_vlapic(d) )
{
/* Xen doesn't allow changing the local APIC MMIO window position. */
mfn = paddr_to_pfn(APIC_DEFAULT_PHYS_BASE);
rc |= iomem_deny_access(d, mfn, mfn);
}

> That would apparently mean fiddling with

Urg, that seems ugly.  It would also need undoing if the APICs are
reverted to xAPIC mode?

As said above, for both HVM and PVH Xen doesn't allow moving the APIC
MMIO window to anything different than APIC_DEFAULT_PHYS_BASE.

 But that's in GFN space, not in MFN one. Why would that matter for

Re: [PATCH v4] xen/dom0less: support for vcpu affinity

[Julien Grall]

Hi Stefano,

On 20/02/2025 02:18, Stefano Stabellini wrote:

From: Xenia Ragiadakou 

Add vcpu affinity to the dom0less bindings. Example:

 dom1 {

 cpus = <4>;
 vcpu0 {

id = <0>;
hard-affinity = "4-7";
 };
 vcpu1 {
compatible = "xen,vcpu";
id = <1>;
hard-affinity = "0-3,5";
 };
 vcpu2 {
compatible = "xen,vcpu";
id = <2>;
hard-affinity = "1,6";
 };
 ...

Note that the property hard-affinity is optional. It is possible to add
other properties in the future not only to specify soft affinity, but
also to provide more precise methods for configuring affinity. For
instance, on ARM the MPIDR could be use to specify the pCPU. For now, it
is left to the future.

So say we have kPTI, thus no vmalloc() mapped in CR3 when running
userspace, and do a full TLB flush right before switching to userspace -
could the TLB still end up with vmalloc()-range-related entries when we're
back in the kernel and going through the danger zone?

Yes, because the danger zone includes the switch back to the kernel CR3
with vmalloc() fully mapped. All bets are off about what's in the TLB
the moment that CR3 write occurs.

Actually, you could probably use that.

If a mapping is in the PTI user page table, you can't defer the flushes
for it. Basically the same rule for text poking in the danger zone.

If there's a deferred flush pending, make sure that all of the
SWITCH_TO_KERNEL_CR3's fully flush the TLB. You'd need something similar
to user_pcid_flush_mask.

But, honestly, I'm still not sure this is worth all the trouble. If
folks want to avoid IPIs for TLB flushes, there are hardware features
that *DO* that. Just get new hardware instead of adding this complicated
pile of software that we have to maintain forever. In 10 years, we'll
still have this software *and* 95% of our hardware has the hardware
feature too.

[PATCH for 4.21 v5 1/3] xen/riscv: implement software page table walking

[Oleksii Kurochko]

RISC-V doesn't have hardware feature to ask MMU to translate
virtual address to physical address ( like Arm has, for example ),
so software page table walking is implemented.

 - Update the comment above _pt_walk() about returning of optional
   level of the found pte.
 - Rename local variable `pte_p *entry` to `ptep` in pt_walk() function.
 - Add Reviewed-by: Jan Beulich .

Changes in v4:
 - Update the comment message above _pt_walk(): add information that
   `pte_level` is optional and add a note that `table` should be

 - Remove circular dependency.
 - Move declaration of pt_walk() to asm/page.h.
 - Revert other not connected to pt_walk() changes.
 - Update the commit message.
 - Drop unnessary anymore local variables of pt_walk().
 - Refactor pt_walk() to use for() loop instead of while() loop
   as it was suggested by Jan B.
 - Introduce _pt_walk() which returns pte_t * and update prototype
   of pt_walk() to return pte_t by value.
---
Changes in v2:
 - Update the code of pt_walk() to return pte_t instead of paddr_t.
 - Fix typos and drop blankets inside parentheses in the comment.
 - Update the `ret` handling; there is no need for `mfn` calculation
   anymore as pt_walk() returns or pte_t of a leaf node or non-present
   pte_t.
 - Drop the comment before unmap_table().
 - Drop local variable `pa` as pt_walk() is going to return pte_t
   instead of paddr_t.
 - Add the comment above pt_walk() to explain what it does and returns.
 - Add additional explanation about possible return values of pt_next_level()

[PATCH for 4.21 v5 3/3] xen/riscv: update mfn calculation in pt_mapping_level()

[Oleksii Kurochko]

When pt_update() is called with arguments (..., INVALID_MFN, ..., 0 or 1),
it indicates that a mapping is being destroyed/modifyed.

In the case when modifying or destroying a mapping, it is necessary to
search until a leaf node is found, instead of searching for a page table
entry based on the precalculated `level` and `order`(look at pt_update()).
This is because when `mfn` == INVALID_MFN, the `mask` (in pt_mapping_level())
will take into account only `vfn`, which could accidentally return an
incorrect level, leading to the discovery of an incorrect page table entry.

For example, if `vfn` is page table level 1 aligned, but it was mapped as
page table level 0, then pt_mapping_level() will return `level` = 1, since
only `vfn` (which is page table level 1 aligned) is taken into account when
`mfn` == INVALID_MFN (look at pt_mapping_level()).

- Rename *entry to *ptep in pt_update_entry().
- Fix code style issue in the comment.
- Move NULL check of pointer to `table` inside unmap_table and then drop
  it in pt_update_entry().
---
Changes in v4:
- Move defintion of local variable table inside `else` case as it is
  used only there.
- Change unmap_table(table) to unmap_table(entry) for unifying both
  cases when _pt_walk() is used and when pte is seached on the specified
  level.
- Initialize local variable `entry` to avoid compilation error caused by
  uninitialized variable.
---
Changes in v3:
- Drop ASSERT() for order as it isn't needed anymore.
- Drop PTE_LEAF_SEARCH and use instead level=CONFIG_PAGING_LEVELS;
  refactor connected code correspondingly.
- Calculate order once.
- Drop initializer for local variable order.
- Drop BUG_ON(!pte_is_mapping(*entry)) for the case when leaf searching
  happens as there is a similar check in pt_check_entry(). Look at
  pt.c:41 and pt.c:75.
---
Changes in v2:
 - Introduce PTE_LEAF_SEARCH to tell page table update operation to
   walk down to wherever the leaf entry is.
 - Use introduced PTE_LEAF_SEARCH to not searching pte_t entry twice.
 - Update the commit message.

[PATCH for 4.21 v5 0/3] Fixes for vmap_to_mfn() and pt_mapping_level

[Oleksii Kurochko]

Introduce pt_walk(), which does software page table walking to resolve the
following issues:
1. vmap_to_mfn() uses virt_to_maddr(), which is designed to work with VA
   from either the direct map region or Xen's linkage region (XEN_VIRT_START),
   thereby an assertion will occur if it is used with other regions, in
   particular for the VMAP region. The solution is usage of pt_walk() for
   vmap_to_mfn().
2. pt_mapping_level() returns incorrect page table level in the case when
   mfn==INVALID_MFN when, for example, VA was mapped to PA using 4k mapping,
   but during destroying/modification pt_mapping_level() could return incorrect
   page table level as when mfn==INVALID_MFN then only VA is taking into account
   for page table level calculation and so if VA is page table level 1 aligned
   then page_mapping_level() will return level 1 ( instead of level 0 as VA was
   mapped to PA using 4k mapping so there is incostinency here ).
   The solution is to set level=CONFIG_PAGING_TABLE to tell pt_update() algo
   that it should use pt_walk() to find proper page table entry instead of
   using for searching of page table entry based on precalculated by
   pt_mapping_level() `level` and `order` values.

[PATCH for 4.21 v7 2/4] xen/riscv: drop CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_RV64G

[Oleksii Kurochko]

'G' stands for "imafd_zicsr_zifencei".

Extensions 'f' and 'd' aren't really needed for Xen, and allowing floating
point registers to be used can lead to crashes.

Extensions 'i', 'm', 'a', 'zicsr', and 'zifencei' are necessary for the
operation of Xen, which is why they are used explicitly (unconditionally)
in -march.

Drop "Base ISA" choice from riscv/Kconfig as it is always empty.

[PATCH for 4.21 v5 2/3] xen/riscv: update defintion of vmap_to_mfn()

[Oleksii Kurochko]

vmap_to_mfn() uses virt_to_maddr(), which is designed to work with VA from
either the direct map region or Xen's linkage region (XEN_VIRT_START).
An assertion will occur if it is used with other regions, in particular for
the VMAP region.

Since RISC-V lacks a hardware feature to request the MMU to translate a VA to
a PA (as Arm does, for example), software page table walking (pt_walk()) is
used for the VMAP region to obtain the mfn from pte_t.

To avoid introduce a circular dependency between asm/mm.h and asm/page.h by
including each other, the static inline function  _vmap_to_mfn() is introduced
in asm/page.h, as it uses struct pte_t and pte_is_mapping() from asm/page.h.
_vmap_to_mfn() is then reused in the definition of vmap_to_mfn() macro in
asm/mm.h.

[PATCH for 4.21 v7 4/4] xen/riscv: identify specific ISA supported by cpu

[Oleksii Kurochko]

Supported ISA extensions are specified in the device tree within the CPU
node, using two properties: `riscv,isa-extensions` and `riscv,isa`.

Currently, Xen does not support the `riscv,isa-extensions` property and
will be added in the future.

The `riscv,isa` property is parsed for each CPU, and the common extensions
are stored in the `host_riscv_isa` bitmap.
This bitmap is then used by `riscv_isa_extension_available()` to check
if a specific extension is supported.

The current implementation is based on Linux kernel v6.12-rc3
implementation with the following changes:
 - Drop unconditional setting of {RISCV_ISA_EXT_ZICSR,
   RISCV_ISA_EXT_ZIFENCEI, RISCV_ISA_EXT_ZICNTR, RISCV_ISA_EXT_ZIHPM} because
   Xen is going to run on hardware produced after the aforementioned
   extensions were split out of "i".
 - Remove saving of the ISA for each CPU, only the common available ISA is
   saved.
 - Remove ACPI-related code as ACPI is not supported by Xen.
 - Drop handling of elf_hwcap, since Xen does not provide hwcap to
   userspace.
 - Replace of_cpu_device_node_get() API, which is not available in Xen,
   with a combination of dt_for_each_child_node(), dt_device_type_is_equal(),
   and dt_get_cpuid_from_node() to retrieve cpuid and riscv,isa in
   riscv_fill_hwcap_from_isa_string().
 - Rename arguments of __RISCV_ISA_EXT_DATA() from _name to ext_name, and
   _id to ext_id for clarity.
 - Replace instances of __RISCV_ISA_EXT_DATA with RISCV_ISA_EXT_DATA.
 - Replace instances of __riscv_isa_extension_available with
   riscv_isa_extension_available for consistency. Also, update the type of
   `bit` argument of riscv_isa_extension_available().
 - Redefine RISCV_ISA_EXT_DATA() to work only with ext_name and ext_id,
   as other fields are not used in Xen currently. Also RISCV_ISA_EXT_DATA()
   is reworked in the way to take only one argument `ext_name`.
 - Add check of first 4 letters of riscv,isa string to
   riscv_isa_parse_string() as Xen doesn't do this check before so it is
   necessary to check correctness of riscv,isa string. ( it should start with
   rv{32,64} with taking into account upper and lower case of "rv").
   Additionally, check also that 'i' goes after 'rv{32,64}' to be sure that
   `out_bitmap` can't be empty.
 - Drop an argument of riscv_fill_hwcap() and riscv_fill_hwcap_from_isa_string()
   as it isn't used, at the moment.
 - Update the comment message about QEMU workaround.
 - Apply Xen coding style.
 - s/pr_info/printk.
 - Drop handling of uppercase letters of riscv,isa in riscv_isa_parse_string() 
as
   Xen checks that riscv,isa should be in lowercase according to the device tree
   bindings.
 - Update logic of riscv_isa_parse_string(): now it stops parsing of riscv,isa
   if illegal symbol was found instead of ignoring them.

"rv{32,64}i"
  is in "riscv,isa" thereby this_isa can't be empty.

[PATCH for 4.21 v7 1/4] automation: drop debian:11-riscv64 container

[Oleksii Kurochko]

There are two reasons for that:
1. In the README, GCC baseline is chosen to be 12.2, whereas Debian 11
   uses GCC 10.2.1.
2. Xen requires mandatory some Z extensions, but GCC 10.2.1 does not
   support Z extensions in -march, causing the compilation to fail.

Re: Inquiry About PCI Passthrough Development and Testing Patches on ARM

[Mykyta Poturai]

Hi Shenghui,
I have somewhat taken over the upstreaming effort for now, here is our plan:
- 2025 Q1
1. Send "xen/arm: platform: Add support for R-Car Gen4" - Done
2. Revive "SMMU handling for PCIe Passthrough on ARM" - Done
3. Send "Add support for R-Car Gen4 PCIE Host"
4. Revive "PCI devices passthrough on Arm, part 3"
- 2025 Q2
1. Send "IPMMU handling for PCIe Passthrough"
2. Send "Enable the existing MSI-X and MSI handlers support for ARM"
3. Revive  "Kconfig for PCI passthrough on ARM"
4. Send "PCI devices passthrough on Arm, part 4(pci scan support)"

Please note that most Q2 patches depend on Q1 patches in some way, so it 
may require waiting some more time if the review process takes a long time.

There are downstream WIP branches 
https://github.com/Deedone/xen/tree/pci_passthrough_wip (based on 
4.20-rc3), 
https://gitlab.com/xen-project/people/bmarquis/xen-arm-poc/-/commits/poc/pci-passthrough
 
(based on 4.17-unstable) that currently have PCI passthrough working on 
Arm, but on upstream it is not yet functional. There is also work done 
on moving PCI host from hardware domain to a separate driver domain, but 
it is very WIP and not yet ready to be upstreamed.

Probably better to omit it then. It would be one of the changes moving to
PVHv2 that missed making the adjustment.

Why PFN_DOWN() rather than subtracting PAGE_SHIFT? That's two shifts rather
than just one. Personally I'd prefer if we continued using the subtraction,
but either way:

But that's in GFN space, not in MFN one. Why would that matter for iomem_caps?
