[Xen-devel] [PATCH v3] x86/hvm: Add per-vcpu evtchn upcalls

[Paul Durrant <paul.durrant@xxxxxxxxxx>]

HVM guests have always been confined to using the domain callback
via (see HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_IRQ) to receive event notifications.
This is usually an IOAPIC vector and is only used if the event
channel is bound to vcpu 0.

PV-on-HVM Linux uses a local APIC vector for event channel upcall,
set using HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_IRQ by ORing in a special bit (bit 57)
into the value (see params.h), but this mechanism is not suitable
in the general case since the vector must be the same on all vcpus
which cannot be guaranteed on some OS (e.g. Windows).

This patch adds a new HVM op allowing a guest to specify a local
APIC vector to use as an upcall notification for a specific vcpu
therefore coping with the case of differing vector numbers.

v2:
 - Addressed comments from Andrew Cooper
   - Check vector >=16
   - Put hypercall in x86-specific section

v3:
 - Addressed comments from Jan Beulich
   - More verbose check-in comment
