This is a series from Mirela Simonovic. Ported to 4.16 and with added changes suggested here https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAKPH-NjmaZENb8gT=+FobrAycRF01_--6GuRA2ck9Di5wiudhA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx This series contains support for suspend to RAM (in the following text just 'suspend') for Xen on arm64. The implementation is aligned with the design specification that has been proposed on xen-devel list: https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2017-12/msg01574.html At a high-level the series contains: 1) Support for suspending guests via virtual PSCI SYSTEM_SUSPEND call 2) Support for resuming a guest on an interrupt targeted to that guest 3) Support for suspending Xen after dom0 finalizes the suspend 4) Support for resuming Xen on an interrupt that is targeted to a guest -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In more details: *** About suspending/resuming guests The patches included in this series allow PSCI compliant guests that have support for suspend to RAM (e.g. echo mem > /sys/power/state in Linux) to suspend and resume on top of Xen without any EL1 code changes. During their suspend procedure guests will hot-unplug their secondary CPUs, triggering Xen's virtual CPU_OFF PSCI implementation, and then finalize the suspend from their boot CPU, triggering Xen's virtual SYSTEM_SUSPEND PSCI. Guests will save/restore their own EL1 context on suspend/resume. A guest is expected to leave enabled interrupts that are considered to be its wake-up sources. Those interrupts will be able to wake up the guest. This holds regardless of the state of the underlying software layers, i.e. whether Xen gets suspended or not doesn't affect the ability of the guest to wake up. First argument of SYSTEM_SUSPEND PSCI call is a resume entry point, from which the guest assumes to start on resume. On resume, guests assume to be running in an environment whose state matches the CPU state after reset, e.g. with reset register values, MMU disabled, etc. To ensure this, Xen has to 'reset' the VCPU context and save the resume entry point into program counter before the guest's VCPU gets scheduled in on resume. This is done when the guest resumes. Xen also needs to take care that the guest's view of GIC and timer gets saved. Also, while a guest is suspended its watchdogs are paused, in order to avoid watchdog triggered shutdown of a guest that has been asleep for a period of time that is longer than the watchdog period. After this point, from Xen's point of view a suspended guest has one VCPU blocked, waiting for an interrupt. When such an interrupt comes, Xen will unblock the VCPU of the suspended domain, which results in the guest resuming. *** About suspending/resuming Xen Xen starts its own suspend procedure once dom0 is suspended. Dom0 is considered to be the decision maker for EL1 and EL2. On suspend, Xen will first freeze all domains. Then, Xen disables physical secondary CPUs, which leads to physical CPU_OFF to be called by each secondary CPU. After that Xen finalizes the suspend from the boot CPU. This consists of suspending the timer, i.e. suppressing its interrupts (we don't want to be woken up by a timer, there is no VCPU ready to be scheduled). Then the state of GIC is saved, console is suspended, and CPU context is saved. The saved context tells where Xen needs to continue execution on resume. Since Xen will resume with MMU disabled, the first thing to do in resume is to resume memory management in order to be able to access the context that needs to be restored (we know virtual address of the context data). Finally Xen calls SYSTEM_SUSPEND PSCI to the EL3. When resuming, all the steps done in suspend need to be reverted. This is completed by unblocking dom0's VCPU, because we always want the dom0 to resume, regardless of the target domain whose interrupt woke up Xen. *** Handling of unprivileged guests during Xen suspend/resume Any domU that is not suspended when dom0 suspends will be frozen, domUs that are already suspended remain suspended. On resume the suspended domUs still remain suspended (unless their wake interrupt caused Xen to wake) while the others will be thawed.
