[RFC PATCH V2] xen/gnttab: Store frame GFN in struct page_info on Arm



From: Oleksandr Tyshchenko <oleksandr_tyshchenko@xxxxxxxx>

Rework Arm implementation to store grant table frame GFN
in struct page_info directly instead of keeping it in
standalone status/shared arrays.

To cover 64-bit/40-bit IPA on Arm64/Arm32 we need the space
to hold 52-bit/28-bit value respectively. In order to not
grow the size of struct page_info borrow the required amount
of bits from type_info's count portion which current context
won't suffer (currently only 1 bit is used on Arm).

Introduce corresponding PGT_* constructs and access macros.
Update existing gnttab macros to deal with GFN value according
to new location. Also update the use of count portion on Arm
in share_xen_page_with_guest().

Update the P2M code to clean said GFN portion when putting
a reference on the grant table page in p2m_put_l3_page().
The added check is based on the assumption that grant table page
is the xen_heap page and its entry has p2m_ram_rw type, which
is correct. However, this check is not entirely precise and we
might end up clearing the GFN portion for other xen_heap pages
with the same p2m_type. But, this action is considered as
harmless, since only grant table pages really use that portion.

And for everything to work correctly introduce arch-specific
macros to be called from alloc_xenheap_pages()/free_xenheap_pages()
which purposes on Arm are to clear the GFN portion before use and
make sure the portion is cleared after use, on x86 these are
just stubs.

This patch is intended to fix the potential issue on Arm
which might happen when remapping grant-table frame.
A guest (or the toolstack) will unmap the grant-table frame
using XENMEM_remove_physmap. This is a generic hypercall,
so on x86, we are relying on the fact the M2P entry will
be cleared on removal. For architecture without the M2P,
the GFN would still be present in the grant frame/status
array. So on the next call to map the page, we will end up to
request the P2M to remove whatever mapping was the given GFN.
This could well be another mapping.

Besides that, this patch simplifies arch code on Arm by
removing arrays and corresponding management code and
as the result gnttab_init_arch/gnttab_destroy_arch helpers
and struct grant_table_arch become useless and can be
dropped globally.

! Please note, there is still unresolved locking question here for which
I failed to find a suitable solution !

According to the internal conversation:
Now the GFN field in the struct page_info is accessed from
gnttab_set_frame_gfn() in the grant table code and from page_set_frame_gfn()
in the P2M code (the former uses the latter).

We need to prevent the concurrent access to this field. But, we cannot grab
the grant lock from the P2M code because we will introduce a lock inversion.
The page_set_frame_gfn() will be called from the P2M code with the p2m lock held
and then acquire the grant table lock. The gnttab_map_frame() will do the 
inverse.

Changes RFC1 -> RFC2:
 - update patch description
 - add/update comments in code
 - clarify check in p2m_put_l3_page()
 - introduce arch_alloc_xenheap_page() and arch_free_xenheap_page()
   and drop page_arch_init()
 - add ASSERT to gnttab_shared_page() and gnttab_status_page()
 - rework changes to Arm's struct page_info: do not split type_info,
   allocate GFN portion by reducing count portion, create corresponding
   PGT_* construct, etc
 - update page_get_frame_gfn() and page_set_frame_gfn()
 - update the use of count portion on Arm
 - drop the leading underscore in the macro parameter names
