[Xen-devel] [PATCH v4 20/23] xen: support console_switching between Dom0 and DomUs on ARM

[Stefano Stabellini <sstabellini@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Today Ctrl-AAA is used to switch between Xen and Dom0. Extend the
mechanism to allow for switching between Xen, Dom0, and any of the
initial DomU created from Xen alongside Dom0 out of information provided
via device tree.

Rename xen_rx to console_rx to match the new behavior.

Clarify existing comment about "notify the guest", making it clear that
it is only about the hardware domain.

Changes in v4:
- handle console_rx == 0 in console_input_domain
- use rcu_lock_by_domain instead of get_domain_by_id
- handle the case where the returned domain is NULL
- send_global_virq(VIRQ_CONSOLE) only when chars are for Dom0
- make console_rx unsigned int
- fix comment
- code readability improvement
- fix opt_conswitch[1] == 'x' case
- move console_input_domain to next patch

Changes in v3:
- only call vpl011 functions ifdef CONFIG_SBSA_VUART_CONSOLE
- add blank line and spaces
- remove xen_rx from print messages
- rename xen_rx to console_rx
- keep switch_serial_input() at boot
- add better comments
- fix existing comment
- add warning if no guests console/uart is available
- add console_input_domain function

Changes in v2:
- only call vpl011_rx_char if the vpl011 has been initialized
