[Xen-devel] [PATCH RFC V3 1/5] xen: Emulate with no writes

[Razvan Cojocaru <rcojocaru@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Added support for emulating an instruction with no memory writes.
Additionally, introduced hvm_emulate_one_full(), which inspects
possible return values from the hvm_emulate_one() functions
(EXCEPTION, UNHANDLEABLE) and acts on them.

Changes since V1:
 - Removed the Linux code that computes the length of an instruction.
 - Unused function parameters are no longer marked.
 - Refactored the code to eliminate redundancy.
 - Made the exception passed on to the guest by hvm_emulate_one_full()
   configurable.

Changes since V2:
 - Renamed hvmemul_write_dummy() to hvmemul_write_discard().
 - Fixed a comment (Xen coding style rules).
 - Renamed hvm_emulate_one_with_ops() to _hvm_emulate_one().
 - Changed stack variable hvm_emulate_ops_no_write into a static const.
 - Modified struct hvm_emulate_ctxt ctx initialization syntax.
 - Renamed unhandleable_trapnr to trapnr and unhandleable_errcode
   to errcode.
 - Changed errcode's type to unsigned int.
 - Removed hvm_emulate_one() loop that went on until it returned
   something other than X86EMUL_RETRY (to prevent potential
   blocking against the time calibration rendezvous).
