Prior to this change both functions returned 0 for success, -1 for failure
and +1 to indicate that an exception was injected into the guest.
The numerical value of ERESTART also happens to be -1 so when these functions
returned -1 it had to be translated to a positive errno value to prevent the
VM_RUN ioctl from being inadvertently restarted. This made it easy to introduce
bugs when writing emulation code.
Fix this by adding an 'int *guest_fault' parameter and setting it to '1' if
an exception was delivered to the guest. The return value is 0 or EFAULT so
no additional translation is needed.

translation. In particular, despite IO-APICs only take 8bit apic id,
IR translation structures accept 32bit APIC Id, which allows x2APIC
mode to function properly. Extend msi_cpu of struct msi_intrsrc and
io_cpu of ioapic_intsrc to full int from one byte.
KPI of IR is isolated into the x86/iommu/iommu_intrmap.h, to avoid
bringing all dmar headers into interrupt code. The non-PCI(e) devices
which generate message interrupts on FSB require special handling. The
HPET FSB interrupts are remapped, while DMAR interrupts are not.
For each msi and ioapic interrupt source, the iommu cookie is added,
which is in fact index of the IRE (interrupt remap entry) in the IR
table. Cookie is made at the source allocation time, and then used at
the map time to fill both IRE and device registers. The MSI
address/data registers and IO-APIC redirection registers are
programmed with the special values which are recognized by IR and used
to restore the IRE index, to find proper delivery mode and target.
Map all MSI interrupts in the block when msi_map() is called.
Since an interrupt source setup and dismantle code are done in the
non-sleepable context, flushing interrupt entries cache in the IR
hardware, which is done async and ideally waits for the interrupt,
requires busy-wait for queue to drain. The dmar_qi_wait_for_seq() is
modified to take a boolean argument requesting busy-wait for the
written sequence number instead of waiting for interrupt.
Some interrupts are configured before IR is initialized, e.g. ACPI
SCI. Add intr_reprogram() function to reprogram all already
configured interrupts, and call it immediately before an IR unit is
enabled. There is still a small window after the IO-APIC redirection
entry is reprogrammed with cookie but before the unit is enabled, but
to fix this properly, IR must be started much earlier.
Add workarounds for 5500 and X58 northbridges, some revisions of which
have severe flaws in handling IR. Use the same identification methods

Implement a subset of the multiboot specification in order to boot Xen
and a FreeBSD Dom0 from the FreeBSD bootloader. This multiboot
implementation is tailored to boot Xen and FreeBSD Dom0, and it will
most surely fail to boot any other multiboot compilant kernel.
In order to detect and boot the Xen microkernel, two new file formats
are added to the bootloader, multiboot and multiboot_obj. Multiboot
support must be tested before regular ELF support, since Xen is a
multiboot kernel that also uses ELF. After a multiboot kernel is
detected, all the other loaded kernels/modules are parsed by the
multiboot_obj format.
The layout of the loaded objects in memory is the following; first the
Xen kernel is loaded as a 32bit ELF into memory (Xen will switch to
long mode by itself), after that the FreeBSD kernel is loaded as a RAW
file (Xen will parse and load it using it's internal ELF loader), and
finally the metadata and the modules are loaded using the native
FreeBSD way. After everything is loaded we jump into Xen's entry point
using a small trampoline. The order of the multiboot modules passed to
Xen is the following, the first module is the RAW FreeBSD kernel, and
the second module is the metadata and the FreeBSD modules.
Since Xen will relocate the memory position of the second
multiboot module (the one that contains the metadata and native
FreeBSD modules), we need to stash the original modulep address inside
of the metadata itself in order to recalculate its position once
booted. This also means the metadata must come before the loaded
modules, so after loading the FreeBSD kernel a portion of memory is
reserved in order to place the metadata before booting.
In order to tell the loader to boot Xen and then the FreeBSD kernel the
following has to be added to the /boot/loader.conf file:
xen_cmdline="dom0_mem=1024M dom0_max_vcpus=2 dom0pvh=1 console=com1,vga"
xen_kernel="/boot/xen"
The first argument contains the command line that will be passed to the Xen
kernel, while the second argument is the path to the Xen kernel itself. This
can also be done manually from the loader command line, by for example
typing the following set of commands:
OK unload
OK load /boot/xen dom0_mem=1024M dom0_max_vcpus=2 dom0pvh=1 console=com1,vga
OK load kernel
OK load zfs
OK load if_tap

Fix this by using 'struct vm_exception' only to communicate information

For /dev/kmem, only access existing kernel mappings for direct map

including the fxsave state, and 2) it stashes a copy of the current
xsave mask in the unused padding between the fxsave state and the
xstate header at the same location used by Linux.
- Teach readelf() to recognize NT_X86_XSTATE notes.
- Change PT_GET/SETXSTATE to take the entire XSAVE state instead of
only the extra portion. This avoids having to always make two
ptrace() calls to get or set the full XSAVE state.
- Add a PT_GET_XSTATE_INFO which returns the length of the current
XSTATE save area (so the size of the buffer needed for PT_GETXSTATE)
and the current XSAVE mask (%xcr0).
