commit 5caa690ea7e9dffa65a496424353c96af10f0308 Author: Julien Grall <jgrall@xxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Mon May 17 17:47:13 2021 +0100 Commit: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Tue Jun 8 18:36:03 2021 +0100 xen/arm: Create dom0less domUs earlier In a follow-up patch we will need to unallocate the boot modules before heap_init_late() is called. The modules will contain the domUs kernel and initramfs. Therefore Xen will need to create extra domUs (used by dom0less) before heap_init_late(). This has two consequences on dom0less: 1) Domains will not be unpaused as soon as they are created but once all have been created. However, Xen doesn't guarantee an order to unpause, so this is not something one could rely on. 2) The memory allocated for a domU will not be scrubbed anymore when an admin select bootscrub=on. This is not something we advertised, but if this is a concern we can introduce either force scrub for all domUs or a per-domain flag in the DT. The behavior for bootscrub=off and bootscrub=idle (default) has not changed. This is part of XSA-372 / CVE-2021-28693.
