      "message": "xen: implement Xen-specific spinlocks\n\nThe standard ticket spinlocks are very expensive in a virtual\nenvironment, because their performance depends on Xen\u0027s scheduler\ngiving vcpus time in the order that they\u0027re supposed to take the\nspinlock.\n\nThis implements a Xen-specific spinlock, which should be much more\nefficient.\n\nThe fast-path is essentially the old Linux-x86 locks, using a single\nlock byte.  The locker decrements the byte; if the result is 0, then\nthey have the lock.  If the lock is negative, then locker must spin\nuntil the lock is positive again.\n\nWhen there\u0027s contention, the locker spin for 2^16[*] iterations waiting\nto get the lock.  If it fails to get the lock in that time, it adds\nitself to the contention count in the lock and blocks on a per-cpu\nevent channel.\n\nWhen unlocking the spinlock, the locker looks to see if there\u0027s anyone\nblocked waiting for the lock by checking for a non-zero waiter count.\nIf there\u0027s a waiter, it traverses the per-cpu \"lock_spinners\"\nvariable, which contains which lock each CPU is waiting on.  It picks\none CPU waiting on the lock and sends it an event to wake it up.\n\nThis allows efficient fast-path spinlock operation, while allowing\nspinning vcpus to give up their processor time while waiting for a\ncontended lock.\n\n[*] 2^16 iterations is threshold at which 98% locks have been taken\naccording to Thomas Friebel\u0027s Xen Summit talk \"Preventing Guests from\nSpinning Around\".  Therefore, we\u0027d expect the lock and unlock slow\npaths will only be entered 2% of the time.\n\nSigned-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge \u003cjeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com\u003e\nCc: Jens Axboe \u003caxboe@kernel.dk\u003e\nCc: Peter Zijlstra \u003ca.p.zijlstra@chello.nl\u003e\nCc: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nCc: Petr Tesarik \u003cptesarik@suse.cz\u003e\nCc: Virtualization \u003cvirtualization@lists.linux-foundation.org\u003e\nCc: Xen devel \u003cxen-devel@lists.xensource.com\u003e\nCc: Thomas Friebel \u003cthomas.friebel@amd.com\u003e\nCc: Nick Piggin \u003cnickpiggin@yahoo.com.au\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\n"

      "message": "xen: implement save/restore\n\nThis patch implements Xen save/restore and migration.\n\nSaving is triggered via xenbus, which is polled in\ndrivers/xen/manage.c.  When a suspend request comes in, the kernel\nprepares itself for saving by:\n\n1 - Freeze all processes.  This is primarily to prevent any\n    partially-completed pagetable updates from confusing the suspend\n    process.  If CONFIG_PREEMPT isn\u0027t defined, then this isn\u0027t necessary.\n\n2 - Suspend xenbus and other devices\n\n3 - Stop_machine, to make sure all the other vcpus are quiescent.  The\n    Xen tools require the domain to run its save off vcpu0.\n\n4 - Within the stop_machine state, it pins any unpinned pgds (under\n    construction or destruction), performs canonicalizes various other\n    pieces of state (mostly converting mfns to pfns), and finally\n\n5 - Suspend the domain\n\nRestore reverses the steps used to save the domain, ending when all\nthe frozen processes are thawed.\n\nSigned-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge \u003cjeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Thomas Gleixner \u003ctglx@linutronix.de\u003e\n"
