The following 5 patches are re-submissions of the vt-d patch.
This set of patches has been tested against cs# 15080 and is
now much more mature and tested against more environments than
the original patch. Specifically, we have successfully tested
the patch with following environements:
- 32/64-bit Linux HVM guest
- 32-bit Windows XP/Vista (64-bit should work but did not test)
- 32PAE/64-bit hypervisor
- APIC and PIC interrupt mechanisms
- PCIe E1000 and PCI E100 NICs

----------------------
1) patch description:
vtd1.patch:
- vt-d specific code
- low risk changes in common code
vtd2.patch:
- io port handling
vtd3.patch:
- interrupt handling
vtd4.patch:
- mmio handling
vtd5.patch:
- turn on VT-d processing in ACPI table
2) how to run
- Use same syntax as PV driver domain method to "hide" and assign PCI
device
- use pciback.hid=(02:00.0) to "hide" device from dom0
- use pci = [ '02:00.00' ] in /etc/xen/hvm.conf to assign device to
HVM domain
- set acpi and apic to 0 in hvm.conf as current patch only works
with PIC
- grub.conf: use "ioapic_ack=old" for /boot/xen.gz
(io_apic.c contains code for avoiding global interrupt problem)
4) description of hvm PCI device assignment design:
- pci config virtualization
- Control panel and qemu changed to pass assigned PCI devices to qemu.
- A new file ioemu/hw/dpci.c reads assigned devices PCI conf and
constructs a
new virtual device and attaches to the guest PCI bus.
- PCI read/write functions are similar to other virtual devices.
Except
write function intercepts writes to COMMAND register and do actual
hardware writes.
- interrupt virtualization
- Currently only works for ACPI/APIC mode
- dpci.c makes a hypercall to tell xen device/intx on vPCI
- In do_IRQ_guest(), when Xen determines a interrupt belongs to a
device
owned by HVM domain, it injects guest IRQ to the domain
- Revert back to ioapic_ack=old to allow for IRQ sharing amongst
guests.
- Implemented new method for mask/unmask in io_apic.c to avoid
spurious interrupt issue.
- mmio
- When guest BIOS (i.e hvmloader) or OS changes PCI BAR, PCI config
write
function in qemu makes a hypercall to instruct Xen to construct p2m
mapping.
- shadow page table fault handler have been modified to allow memory
above
max_pages to be mapped.
- ioport
- Xen intercepts guest io port accesses
- translates guest io port to machine io port
- does machine port access on behalf of guest
5) new hypercalls
