[Xen-devel] [PATCH v3 0/11] Rename/remove IS_PRIV

[Daniel De Graaf <dgdegra@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Changes since v2:
 - Handle XEN_SYSCTL_CPUPOOL_OP_MOVEDOMAIN separately
 - Use is_control_domain for CPUID
 - Use is_{control,hardware}_domain for TSC
 - MAINTAINERS patch included in series

---

Following the conversion of most IS_PRIV hooks to XSM, the remaining
references to this function generally deal with direct hardware access
and not with the type of privilege checks that are best controlled by
XSM. To reflect this, the IS_PRIV check is renamed to is_hardware_domain
and is used only when dealing with accesses that are both required by
dom0 and where it does not make sense to grant access to a domain other
than dom0.

There are a number of existing places in the hypervisor that check
domain_id for equality to zero to make some distinction on dom0; this
series replaces these checks with is_hardware_domain to be consistent in
how the hypervisor checks a domain's access.

Independent changes related to this series:
        [PATCH 01/11] MAINTAINERS: Add myself as XSM maintainer
        [PATCH 08/11] xen/cpupool: prevent a domain from moving itself

Cleanup of IS_PRIV checks that should not be is_hardware_domain:
        [PATCH 02/11] xen/arch/x86: remove IS_PRIV access check bypasses
        [PATCH 03/11] xen/xsm: add hooks for claim
        [PATCH 04/11] hvm: convert access check for nested HVM to XSM
        [PATCH 05/11] xen/arch/x86: remove IS_PRIV_FOR references
        [PATCH 06/11] xen/arch/arm: remove rcu_lock_target_domain_by_id

Replace remaining calls to IS_PRIV:
        [PATCH 07/11] xen: rename IS_PRIV to is_hardware_domain

Use is_hardware_domain locations where (domid == 0) was used:
        [PATCH 09/11] xen: use domid check in is_hardware_domain
        [PATCH 10/11] xen/arch/x86: clarify domid == 0 checks
        [PATCH 11/11] IOMMU: use is_hardware_domain instead of domid == 0
