This patch series adds support for network buffering and drbd disk

the code is also hosted on github:
url: https://github.com/macrosheep/xen/tree/remus-v20
I only had one question in regards to patch:
[PATCH for-4.5 v20 07/12] xl/remus: change bool to defbool
Otherwise all the other patches that did not have an Review
from me look good (and as such I have replied with 'Reviewed-by'
on them).
All of those that had Ian's Ack on them, looked OK to me.
I didn't respond 'Acked-by' on them as I figured I would do
it here.
Regardless of the #7 question I believe the patches can
go in 4.5 and can have 'Acked-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
<konrad.wilk@xxxxxxxxxx>'
on them.
Thank you! I have add all your Ack together witn Ian's Ack
Thank you!
Changes in v20:
Rebased.
Changes in v19:
Use defbool for cmdline switch.
Restruct of subkind init and cleanup operation.
Use libxl__device_kind instead of libxl__remus_device_kind
Fix a layer violation issue pointed out by IanJ.
Other minor fixes.
Rebased to the latest staging tree.
Changes in v18:
Merge match() and setup() api.
Reuse libxl__multidev and libxl__ao_device.
Commit messages and code comments improved. Thanks to Shriram.
Rebased.
Changes in v17:
Make remus device abstract layer more generic.
Addressed Ian J's comments.
Changes in v16:
Merge libxl__remus_state and libxl__remus_device_state.
Pass the ops to device abstract layer instead of defined it in the layer.
Optimized subkind ops APIs.
Addressed Ian J's comments.
Rebased.
Changes in v15:
The first patch in v14 has been taken, so remove it from the patchset.
Add a patch to Update maintained files of REMUS.
Rebased.
Changes in v14:
Addressed IanJ's comments.
Rebased.
Changes in v13:
Addressed Konrad's comments.
Rebased.
Changes in v12:
Add disk buffering cmdline switch.
Changes in v11:
Addressed comments from Ian J and Shriram.
Add drbd disk implement into this patch series.
Changes in V10:
Restructured the whole patch series.
Introduce the remus device abstract layer.
Make remus checkpoint asynchronous.
Changes in V9:
Use async exec script api to exec scripts.
Changes in V8:
Applied some comments(by IanJ).
Merge some struct definitions to it's implementation.
(2/3/5 in V7 => 3 in V8)
Changes in V7:
Applied missing comments(by IanJ).
Applied Shriram comments.
merge netbufering tangled setup/teardown code into one patch.
(2/6/8 in V6 => 5 in V7. 9/10 in V6 => 7 in V7)
Changes in V6:
Applied Ian Jackson's comments of V5 series.
the [PATCH 2/4 V5] is split by small functionalities.
[PATCH 4/4 V5] --> [PATCH 13/13] netbuffer is default enabled.
Changes in V5:
Merge hotplug script patch (2/5) and hotplug script setup/teardown
patch (3/5) into a single patch.
Changes in V4:
[1/5] Remove check for libnl command line utils in autoconf checks
[2/5] minor nits
[3/5] define LIBXL_HAVE_REMUS_NETBUF in libxl.h
[4/5] clean ups. Make the usleep in checkpoint callback asynchronous
[5/5] minor nits
Changes in V3:
[1/5] Fix redundant checks in configure scripts
(based on Ian Campbell's suggestions)
[2/5] Introduce locking in the script, during IFB setup.
Add xenstore paths used by netbuf scripts
to xenstore-paths.markdown
[3/5] Hotplug scripts setup/teardown invocations are now asynchronous
following IanJ's feedback. However, the invocations are still
sequential.
[5/5] Allow per-domain specification of netbuffer scripts in xl remus
commmand.
And minor nits throughout the series based on feedback from
the last version
Changes in V2:
[1/5] Configure script will automatically enable/disable network
buffer support depending on the availability of the appropriate
libnl3 version. [If libnl3 is unavailable, a warning message will be
printed to let the user know that the feature has been disabled.]
use macros from pkg.m4 instead of pkg-config commands
removed redundant checks for libnl3 libraries.
[3,4/5] - Minor nits.
Version 1:
[1/5] Changes to autoconf scripts to check for libnl3. Add linker flags
to libxl Makefile.
[2/5] External script to setup/teardown network buffering using libnl3's
CLI. This script will be invoked by libxl before starting Remus.
The script's main job is to bring up an IFB device with plug qdisc
attached to it. It then re-routes egress traffic from the guest's
vif to the IFB device.
[3/5] Libxl code to invoke the external setup script, followed by netlink
related setup to obtain a handle on the output buffers attached
to each vif.
[4/5] Libxl interaction with network buffer module in the kernel via
libnl3 API.
[5/5] xl cmdline switch to explicitly enable network buffering when
starting remus.
Few things to note(by shriram):
a) Based on previous email discussions, the setup/teardown task has
been moved to a hotplug style shell script which can be customized as
desired, instead of implementing it as C code inside libxl.
b) Libnl3 is not available on NetBSD. Nor is it available on CentOS
(Linux). So I have made network buffering support an optional feature
so that it can be disabled if desired.
c) NetBSD does not have libnl3. So I have put the setup script under
tools/hotplug/Linux folder.
thanks,
Yang.
