- kernel (both dom0 and domU) boot, console is functionnal and it can starts
software from a ramdisk
- there is no driver front-end expect console for domU yet.
- dom0 can probe devices and ex(4) work when Xen3 is booted without acpi
and apic support. But the on-board IDE doens't get interrupts.
The PCI code still needs work (it's hardcoded to mode 1). Some of this
code should be shared with ../x86
The physical insterrupt code needs to get MPBIOS and ACPI support, and
do interrupt routing to properly interract with Xen.
To enable Xen-3.0 support, add
options XEN3
to your kernel config file (this will disable Xen2 support)
Changes affecting Xen-2.0 support (no functionnal changes intended):
- get more constants from genassym for assembly code
- remove some unneeded registers move from start()
- map the shared info page from start(), and remove the pte = 0xffffffff hack
- vector.S: in hypervisor_callback() make sure %esi points to
HYPERVISOR_shared_info before accessing the info page. Remplace some
hand-written assembly with the equivalent macro defined in frameasm.h
- more debug code, dissabled by default.
while here added my copyright on some files I worked on in 2005.
- Define _BUS_AVAIL_END to 0xffffffff, as we don't have an easy way to
find the upper bound for our machine address space (and this can change
when we swap pages with the hypervisor).
- implement _xen_bus_dmamem_alloc_range(), which will request a contigous
set of pages to the hypervisor if the pages returned by uvm_pglistalloc()
don't fit the constraints.
We can't deal with the low/high constraints yet, because Xen doesn't offer a
way to get pages in a specific ranges of addresses.
Based on patches from Dave Thompson (in private mail), with heavy hacking
by me.
including soft interrupt, and this is way too low in some use (lots of domains,
or domains with lots of xennet, or even hardware with lots of devices at
different interrupts).
Based on idea from YAMAMOTO Takashi, keep one list of handler per-event and
one per-IPL (so the same handler is now in 2 lists). In the common case were
an event is received at low IPL, we can call the handlers quickly (there
is usually only one handler per event, unless the event is mapped to a
physical interrupt and this interrupt is shared by different devices).
Deffered events and software interrupts are handled by a bitmask (as before)
with one bit per IPL. When one IPL has an event pending all handlers for
this IPL will be called.
With this change, it is now possible to have all the 1024 events active.
While here, handle debug event in a special way: the handler is always called,
regardless of the current IPL. Make the handler print usefull informations
about events and IPL states.
Also remove code not used on Xen in files inherited from the x86 port.
- distinguish paddr_t and bus_addr_t.
for xen, use bus_addr_t in the sense of machine address.
- move _X86_BUS_DMA_PRIVATE part of bus.h into bus_private.h.
- remove special handling of xen_shm. we can always grab
machine address from pte.
- don't use managed mappings/backing objects for wired memory allocations.
save some resources like pv_entry. also fix (most of) PR/27030.
- simplify kernel memory management API.
- simplify pmap bootstrap of some ports.
- some related cleanups.
by 0x100000 (above the I/O Memory "hole") leaving all physical addresses
below unused, don't perform phys<->mach mapping for addresses below 0x100000
or beyond the real hardware's physical memory.
-> /dev/mem works now as expected and X works in domain0.
