[Xen-devel] [PATCH v3 00/21] x86/xen: untangle PV and PVHVM guest support code

[Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Changes since v2:
- Rebase to 4.11.0-rc1+
- XEN_HAVE_PVMMU moved to config XEN_PV [Juergen Gross]
- .pin_vcpu kept for x86_hyper_xen_hvm to support PVH Dom0 in future
   [Juergen Gross]
- 'extern' qualifiers dropped from newly introduced function prototypes
  in headers [Juergen Gross]
- A couple of #includes added to address build issues with different
  configs [kbuild test robot].
- Juergen reviewed-bys added (hope they stand with the above mentioned
  changes).

The series can also be pulled from https://github.com/vittyvk/linux.git
 (xen_pv_hvm_split_v3 branch).

Some patches are known to produce checkpatch.pl WARNINGS and a couple of
ERRORs, I fixed a few (mostly in _hvm* code I split) and I refrained from
fixing the rest to make it easier to review. I think that we may leave PV
code as it is as sooner or later it will go away.

Original description:

I have a long-standing idea to separate PV and PVHVM code in kernel and 
introduce Kconfig options to make it possible to enable the required
parts only breaking the current 'all or nothing' approach.

Motivation:
- Xen related x86 code in kernel is rather big and it is unclear which
  parts of it are required for PV, for HVM or for both. With PVH coming
  into picture is becomes even more tangled. It makes it hard to
  understand/audit the code.

- In some case we may want to avoid bloating kernel by supporting Xen
  guests we don't need. In particular, 90% of the code in arch/x86/xen/ is
  required to support PV guests and one may require PVHVM support only.

- PV guests are supposed to go away one day and such code separation would
  help us to get ready.

This series adds XEN_PV Kconfig option and makes it possible to build PV-only
and PVHVM-only kernels. It also makes it possible to disable Dom0 support.

Some patches are rather big but this is mostly just moving code around, no
functional changes intended. I smoke tested it with PV-only and PVHVM-only
builds, booted and did save/restore test. I also tried the newly introduced
PVHv2 guest, it even worked!
