[Xen-devel] [PATCH v3 00/17] Xen ARM DomU ACPI support

[Shannon Zhao <zhaoshenglong@xxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Shannon Zhao <shannon.zhao@xxxxxxxxxx>

Note: while there are still two points (user configuration name and
where to load the ACPI blob) which we don't reach an agreement and need
other maintainer's opinions, but I'd like to send the updated series out
since we could move forward and once we reach an agreement I can make
changes.

The design of this feature is described as below.
Firstly, the toolstack (libxl) generates the ACPI tables according the
number of vcpus and gic controller.

Then, it copies these ACPI tables to DomU non-RAM memory map space and
passes them to UEFI firmware through the "ARM multiboot" protocol.

At last, UEFI gets the ACPI tables through the "ARM multiboot" protocol
and installs these tables like the usual way and passes both ACPI and DT
information to the Xen DomU.

Currently libxl only generates RSDP, XSDT, GTDT, MADT, FADT, DSDT tables
since it's enough now.

This has been tested using guest kernel with the Dom0 ACPI support
patches which could be fetched from:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/mfleming/efi.git/log/?h=efi/arm-xen

The UEFI binary could be fetched from or built from edk2 master branch:
http://people.linaro.org/~shannon.zhao/DomU_ACPI/XEN_EFI.fd

This series can be fetched from:
https://git.linaro.org/people/shannon.zhao/xen.git  domu_acpi_v3

Changes since v2:
* return error for 32bit domain with acpi enabled
* include actypes.h to reuse the definitions
* rename libxl_arm_acpi.h to libxl_arm.h
* use ACPI_MADT_ENABLED
* rebased on top of Boris's ACPI branch to reuse mk_dsdt.c

Changes since v1:
* move ACPI tables generation codes to a new file
* use static asl file to generate DSDT table and include processor
  device objects
* assign a non-RAM map for ACPI blob
* use existing ACPI table definitions under xen/include/acpi/
* add a configuration for user to enable/disable ACPI generation
* calculate the ACPI table checksum
