non-zero sector size. Such a device would be a virtual disk of zero
bytes; clearly not useful, and not something we should try to attach.
As a fortuitous side effect, checking that these values are non-zero
here results in them not *becoming* zero later on the function. This
odd behaviour began with r309124 (clang 3.9.0) but is challenging to

the llvm optimizer behaviour enough to make the unexpected zeroing of

Using unmapped IO is really beneficial when running inside of a VM,

- sys/xen/xen_intr.h: evtchn_port_t is already defined in the headers so
drop it.
- {amd64,i386}/include/intr_machdep.h: NR_EVENT_CHANNELS now depends on
xen/interface/event_channel.h, so include it.
- {amd64,i386}/{amd64,i386}/support.S: It's not neccessary to include
machine/intr_machdep.h. This is also fixing build compilation with the

- dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c: The typedef for blkif_request_segmenthas

The changes to xen/interface/io/blkif.h consist merely of merging updates
from the upstream Xen repository.
In dev/xen/blkfront/block.h we add some convenience macros and structure
fields used for indirect-page I/Os: The device records its negotiated limit
on the number of indirect pages used, while each I/O command structure gains
permanently allocated page(s) for indirect page references and the Xen grant
references for those pages.
In dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c we now check in xbd_queue_cb whether a request
is small enough to handle without an indirection page, and either follow the
previous behaviour or use new code for issuing an indirect segment I/O. In
xbd_connect we read the size of indirect segment I/Os supported by the backend
and select the maximum size we will use; then allocate the pages and Xen grant
references for each I/O command structure. In xbd_free those grants and pages
are released.
A new loader tunable, hw.xbd.xbd_enable_indirect, can be set to 0 in order to
disable this functionality; it works by pretending that the backend does not
support this feature. Some backends exhibit a loss of performance with large
I/Os, so users may wish to test with and without this functionality enabled.

These were all left behind from the pre-r284296 support for a "segment
block" extension.
The FreeBSD extension adds a new request type, called blkif_segment_block
which has a size of 112bytes for both i386 and amd64. This is fine on
amd64, since requests have a size of 112B there also. But this is not true
for i386, where requests have a size of 108B. So on i386 we basically
overrun the ring slot when queuing a request of type blkif_segment_block_t,
which is very bad.
Remove this extension (including a cleanup of the public blkif.h header
file) from blkfront and blkback.

- Xen interrupt handlers can optionally use a filter handler

a da(4) instance going away while GEOM is still probing it.
In this case, the GEOM disk class instance has been created by
disk_create(), and the taste of the disk is queued in the GEOM
event queue.
While that event is queued, the da(4) instance goes away. When the
open call comes into the da(4) driver, it dereferences the freed
(but non-NULL) peripheral pointer provided by GEOM, which results
in a panic.
The solution is to add a callback to the GEOM disk code that is
called when all of its resources are cleaned up. This is
implemented inside GEOM by adding an optional callback that is
called when all consumers have detached from a provider, and the
provider is about to be deleted.
scsi_cd.c,
scsi_da.c: In the register routine for the cd(4) and da(4)
routines, acquire a reference to the CAM peripheral
instance just before we call disk_create().
Use the new GEOM disk d_gone() callback to register
a callback (dadiskgonecb()/cddiskgonecb()) that
decrements the peripheral reference count once GEOM
has finished cleaning up its resources.
In the cd(4) driver, clean up open and close
behavior slightly. GEOM makes sure we only get one
open() and one close call, so there is no need to
set an open flag and decrement the reference count
if we are not the first open.
In the cd(4) driver, use cam_periph_release_locked()
in a couple of error scenarios to avoid extra mutex
calls.

XenServer configurations that advertise the multi-page ring extension,
but only allow a single page of ring space.
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:
If only one page of ring space is being used, do not publish
in the XenStore the number of pages in use (1), via either
of the supported multi-page ring extension schemes.
Single page operation is the same with or without the
ring-page extension being negotiated. Relying on the
legacy behavior avoids an incompatible difference in how
the two ring-page extension schemes that are out in the
wild, deal with the base case of a single page. The
Amazon/Red Hat drivers use the same XenStore variable as
if the extension was not negotiated. The Citrix drivers
assume the new ring reference XenStore variables will be
available

The previous code did not limit the I/O request size based on
the maximum number of segments supported by the back-end. In
current practice, since the only back-end supporting chained
requests is the FreeBSD implementation, this limit was never
exceeded.
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/block.h:

o When negotiating transfer parameters, limit the
max_request_size we use and publish, if it is greater
than the maximum, unaligned, I/O we can support with
the number of segments advertised by the backend.
o Don't unilaterally reduce the I/O size published to
the disk layer by a single page. max_request_size
is already properly limited in the transfer parameter
negotiation code.
o Fix typos in printf strings:
"max_requests_segments" -> "max_request_segments"

Replace FreeBSD specific multi-page ring impelementation with

sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:
o Add a per-instance sysctl tree that exposes all negotiated
transport parameters (ring pages, max number of requests,
max request size, max number of segments).
o In blkfront_vdevice_to_unit() add a missing return statement
so that we properly identify the unit number for high numbered
xvd devices.
sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c:
o Add static dtrace probes for several events in this driver.
o Defer connection shutdown processing until the front-end

down the connection when buggy front-ends transition to the
closing state, even though the device is open and they
veto the close request from the tool stack.
o Add nodes for maximum request size and the number of active

o In blkfront_suspend(), indicate the desire to suspend
by changing the softc connected state to SUSPENDED, and
then wait for any I/O pending on the remote peer to
drain. Cancel suspend processing if I/O does not
drain within 30 seconds.
o Enable and update blkfront_resume(). Since I/O is
drained prior to the suspension of the VM, the complicated
recovery process performed by other Xen blkfront
implementations is avoided. We simply tear down the
connection to our old peer, and then re-connect.
o In blkif_initialize(), fix a resource leak and botched
return if we cannot allocate shadow memory for our
requests.
o In blkfront_backend_changed(), correct our response to
the XenbusStateInitialised state. This state indicates
that our backend peer has published sufficient data for
blkfront to publish ring information and other XenStore
data, not that a connection can occur. Blkfront now
will only perform connection processing in response to
the XenbusStateConnected state. This corrects an issue
where blkfront connected before the backend was ready
during resume processing.

Extend the Xen blkif API: Negotiable request size and number of
requests.
This change extends the information recorded in the XenStore
allowing block front/back devices to negotiate for optimal I/O
parameters. This has been achieved without sacrificing backward
compatibility with drivers that are unaware of these protocol
enhancements. The extensions center around the connection protocol
which now includes these additions:
o The back-end device publishes its maximum supported values for,
request I/O size, the number of page segments that can be
associated with a request, the maximum number of requests that
can be concurrently active, and the maximum number of pages that
can be in the shared request ring. These values are published
before the back-end enters the XenbusStateInitWait state.
o The front-end waits for the back-end to enter either the InitWait
or Initialize state. At this point, the front end limits it's
own capabilities to the lesser of the values it finds published
by the backend, it's own maximums, or, should any back-end data
be missing in the store, the values supported by the original
protocol. It then initializes it's internal data structures
including allocation of the shared ring, publishes its maximum
capabilities to the XenStore and transitions to the Initialized
state.
o The back-end waits for the front-end to enter the Initalized
state. At this point, the back end limits it's own capabilities
to the lesser of the values it finds published by the frontend,
it's own maximums, or, should any front-end data be missing in
the store, the values supported by the original protocol. It
then initializes it's internal data structures, attaches to the
shared ring and transitions to the Connected state.
o The front-end waits for the back-end to enter the Connnected
state, transitions itself to the connected state, and can
commence I/O.
Although an updated front-end driver must be aware of the back-end's
InitWait state, the back-end has been coded such that it can
tolerate a front-end that skips this step and transitions directly
to the Initialized state without waiting for the back-end.
sys/xen/interface/io/blkif.h:
o Increase BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST to 255. This is
the maximum number possible without changing the blkif
request header structure (nr_segs is a uint8_t).
o Add two new constants:
BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_HEADER_BLOCK, and
BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_SEGMENT_BLOCK. These respectively
indicate the number of segments that can fit in the first
ring-buffer entry of a request, and for each subsequent
(sg element only) ring-buffer entry associated with the
"header" ring-buffer entry of the request.
o Add the blkif_request_segment_t typedef for segment
elements.
o Add the BLKRING_GET_SG_REQUEST() macro which wraps the
RING_GET_REQUEST() macro and returns a properly cast
pointer to an array of blkif_request_segment_ts.
o Add the BLKIF_SEGS_TO_BLOCKS() macro which calculates the
number of ring entries that will be consumed by a blkif
request with the given number of segments.
sys/xen/blkif.h:
o Update for changes in interface/io/blkif.h macros.
o Update the BLKIF_MAX_RING_REQUESTS() macro to take the
ring size as an argument to allow this calculation on
multi-page rings.
o Add a companion macro to BLKIF_MAX_RING_REQUESTS(),
BLKIF_RING_PAGES(). This macro determines the number of
ring pages required in order to support a ring with the
supplied number of request blocks.
sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c:
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/block.h:
o Negotiate with the other-end with the following limits:
Reqeust Size: MAXPHYS
Max Segments: (MAXPHYS/PAGE_SIZE) + 1
Max Requests: 256
Max Ring Pages: Sufficient to support Max Requests with
Max Segments.
o Dynamically allocate request pools and segemnts-per-request.
o Update ring allocation/attachment code to support a
multi-page shared ring.
o Update routines that access the shared ring to handle
multi-block requests.
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:
o Track blkfront allocations in a blkfront driver specific
malloc pool.
o Strip out XenStore transaction retry logic in the
connection code. Transactions only need to be used when
the update to multiple XenStore nodes must be atomic.
That is not the case here.
o Fully disable blkif_resume() until it can be fixed
properly (it didn't work before this change).
o Destroy bus-dma objects during device instance tear-down.
o Properly handle backend devices with powef-of-2 sector
sizes larger than 512b.

o When we negotiate with blkback and have to reduce some of our
capabilities, print out the original and reduced capability before
changing the local capability. So the user now gets the correct
information.
o Fix blkif_restart_queue_callback() formatting. Make sure we hold
the mutex in that function before calling xb_startio().
o Fix a couple of KASSERT()s.

sys/xen/gnttab.h:
sys/xen/gnttab.c:
Add the gnttab_end_foreign_access_references() API.
This API allows a client to batch the release of an array of grant
references, instead of coding a private for loop. The implementation
takes advantage of this batching to reduce lock overhead to one
acquisition and release per-batch instead of per-freed grant reference.
While here, reduce the duration the gnttab_list_lock is held during
gnttab_free_grant_references() operations. The search to find the
tail of the incoming free list does not rely on global state and so
can be performed without holding the lock.

This API is already implemented for PV mode.
o Synchronize the API between HVM and PV.
sys/dev/xen/xenpci/xenpci.c:
o Scan the full region of CPUID space in which the Xen VMM interface
may be implemented. On systems using SuSE as a Dom0 where the
Viridian API is also exported, the VMM interface is above the region
we used to search.
o Pass through bus_alloc_resource() calls so that XenBus drivers
attaching on an HVM system can allocate unused physical address
space from the nexus. The block back driver makes use of this
facility.

deep ring.
To avoid duplication within the macros, create and use the new

resides at the head of the ring.
Add the __RING_PAGES() macro which calculates the number of shared
ring pages required to support a ring with the given number of
requests.
These APIs are used to support the multi-page ring version of the
Xen block API.
sys/xeninterface/io/xenbus.h:
Add Comments.

o Fix bugs in probe/attach state machine that could cause the system to
hang when confronted with a failure either in the local domain or in
a remote domain to which one of our driver instances is attaching.
o Publish all required state to the XenStore on device detach and
failure. The majority of the missing functionality was for serving
as a back end since the typical "hot-plug" scripts in Dom0 don't
handle the case of cleaning up for a "service domain" that is not
