2008-04-24xen: add resend_irq_on_evtchn() definition into events.cIsaku Yamahata
Define resend_irq_on_evtchn() which ia64/xen uses. Although it isn't used by current x86/xen code, it's arch generic so that put it into common code.

2008-04-24Xen: make events.c portable for ia64/xen supportIsaku Yamahata
Remove x86 dependency in drivers/xen/events.c for ia64/xen support introducing include/asm/xen/events.h. Introduce xen_irqs_disabled() to hide regs->flags Introduce xen_do_IRQ() to hide regs->orig_ax. make enum ipi_vector definition arch specific. ia64/xen needs four vectors. Add one rmb() because on ia64 xchg() isn't barrier.

2007-07-18xen: use the hvc console infrastructure for Xen consoleJeremy Fitzhardinge
Implement a Xen back-end for hvc console. * * * Add early printk support via hvc console, enable using "earlyprintk=xen" on the kernel command line.

2007-07-18xen: SMP guest supportJeremy Fitzhardinge
This is a fairly straightforward Xen implementation of smp_ops. Xen has its own IPI mechanisms, and has no dependency on any APIC-based IPI. The smp_ops hooks and the flush_tlb_others pv_op allow a Xen guest to avoid all APIC code in arch/i386 (the only apic operation is a single apic_read for the apic version number). One subtle point which needs to be addressed is unpinning pagetables when another cpu may have a lazy tlb reference to the pagetable. Xen will not allow an in-use pagetable to be unpinned, so we must find any other cpus with a reference to the pagetable and get them to shoot down their references.

2007-07-18xen: event channelsJeremy Fitzhardinge
Xen implements interrupts in terms of event channels. Each guest domain gets 1024 event channels which can be used for a variety of purposes, such as Xen timer events, inter-domain events, inter-processor events (IPI) or for real hardware IRQs. Within the kernel, we map the event channels to IRQs, and implement the whole interrupt handling using a Xen irq_chip. Rather than setting NR_IRQ to 1024 under PARAVIRT in order to accomodate Xen, we create a dynamic mapping between event channels and IRQs. Ideally, Linux will eventually move towards dynamically allocating per-irq structures, and we can use a 1:1 mapping between event channels and irqs.
