[Xen-devel] [v6][PATCH 11/16] tools/libxl: detect and avoid conflicts with RDM



While building a VM, HVM domain builder provides struct hvm_info_table{}
to help hvmloader. Currently it includes two fields to construct guest
e820 table by hvmloader, low_mem_pgend and high_mem_pgend. So we should
check them to fix any conflict with RDM.

RMRR can reside in address space beyond 4G theoretically, but we never
see this in real world. So in order to avoid breaking highmem layout
we don't solve highmem conflict. Note this means highmem rmrr could still
be supported if no conflict.

But in the case of lowmem, RMRR probably scatter the whole RAM space.
Especially multiple RMRR entries would worsen this to lead a complicated
memory layout. And then its hard to extend hvm_info_table{} to work
hvmloader out. So here we're trying to figure out a simple solution to
avoid breaking existing layout. So when a conflict occurs,

    #1. Above a predefined boundary (2G)
        - move lowmem_end below reserved region to solve conflict;

    #2. Below a predefined boundary (2G)
        - Check strict/relaxed policy.
        "strict" policy leads to fail libxl. Note when both policies
        are specified on a given region, 'strict' is always preferred.
        "relaxed" policy issue a warning message and also mask this entry 
INVALID
        to indicate we shouldn't expose this entry to hvmloader.

Note later we need to provide a parameter to set that predefined boundary
dynamically.

v6:

* fix some code stypes
* Refine libxl__xc_device_get_rdm()

v5:

* A little change to make sure the per-device policy always override the global
  policy and correct its associated code comments.
* Fix one typo in the patch head description
* Rename xc_device_get_rdm() with libxl__xc_device_get_rdm(), and then replace
  malloc() with libxl__malloc(), and finally cleanup this fallout.
* libxl__xc_device_get_rdm() should return proper libxl error code, ERROR_FAIL.
  Then instead, the allocated RDM entries would be returned with an out 
parameter.

v4:

* Consistent to use term "RDM".
* Unconditionally set *nr_entries to 0
* Grab to all sutffs to provide a parameter to set our predefined boundary
  dynamically to as a separated patch later
